Alex Garcia f5eada266e Give every span a request to belong to
Nothing in Datasette created a span for the HTTP request itself, so every
span the database layer emits was a root span. Measured on this branch: one
faceted table page produces 70 spans in 36 separate traces, none of which
carries a URL. A trace UI shows that as dozens of unrelated single-span
traces per page, interleaved across concurrent requests - worse than
?_trace=1 at the exact job people reach for tracing to do. With the request
span it is 71 spans in 1 trace.

`opentelemetry-instrument` does not fix this on its own: auto-instrumentation
only picks up frameworks that ship an instrumentor entry point, and
Datasette's raw ASGI app is not one.

TelemetryMiddleware is mounted outermost in Datasette.app(), after the
asgi_wrapper() plugin loop, so plugin middleware and the CSRF layer run
*inside* the span. Putting it in DatasetteRouter instead would leave a span
created by an instrumented plugin as an orphan root - reintroducing the
problem for exactly the code most likely to be instrumented.

It stays at ~90 lines, against roughly 700 for
opentelemetry-instrumentation-asgi, because Datasette's app does not return
before its body is sent: route_path awaits response.asgi_send(send), and a
streaming CSV export runs its generator inline inside AsgiStream.asgi_send.
So a plain `finally` covers the response body and no deferred-end machinery
is needed.

Two decisions worth flagging for review:

- Inbound W3C traceparent and baggage are extracted, using the *global*
  propagator. That is the ecosystem norm (Flask, Django, FastAPI, the ASGI
  instrumentation), and going through the global propagator leaves the
  operator in control with no Datasette setting to invent:
  OTEL_PROPAGATORS=none disables it entirely. A public instance that does
  not want client-influenced traces should strip those headers at the proxy.
- url.query is not recorded, anywhere. Datasette query strings carry
  user-supplied SQL in ?sql= and canned query parameters. client.address is
  not recorded either.

The status code is sniffed from the ASGI http.response.start message rather
than read off a Response, because asgi_static, the favicon route, AsgiStream
and AsgiFileDownload all send that message themselves and never build one.
Only a >= 500 sets an error status - per semantic conventions a 4xx is the
client's mistake, and Datasette 404s are routine enough that treating them
as errors would bury a real 500.

The registry gains a `dynamic` flag, because this span's name is composed at
runtime and so can never equal a fixed registry string. Dynamic entries
resolve by span kind instead, and only after exact and prefix matching has
failed, so they cannot shadow a span that does have a registered name.
