feat(langfuse-otel): Add comprehensive metadata support to Langfuse OpenTelemetry integration

This commit brings the langfuse_otel integration to feature parity with the vanilla Langfuse integration by adding support for all metadata fields.

Changes:
- Extended LangfuseSpanAttributes enum with all supported metadata fields:
  - Generation-level: generation_name, generation_id, parent_observation_id, version, mask_input/output
  - Trace-level: trace_user_id, session_id, tags, trace_name, trace_id, trace_metadata, trace_version, trace_release, existing_trace_id, update_trace_keys
  - Debug: debug_langfuse

- Implemented metadata extraction and mapping in langfuse_otel.py:
  - Added _extract_langfuse_metadata() helper to extract metadata from kwargs
  - Support for header-based metadata (langfuse_* headers) via proxy
  - Enhanced _set_langfuse_specific_attributes() to map all metadata to OTEL attributes
  - JSON serialization for complex types (lists, dicts) for OTEL compatibility

- Updated documentation:
  - Added 'Metadata Support' section explaining all fields are now supported
  - Provided usage example showing how to pass metadata
  - Clarified that traces are viewed in Langfuse UI (not generic OTEL backends)
  - Added opentelemetry-exporter-otlp to required dependencies

This allows users to pass metadata like:
metadata={
    'generation_name': 'my-generation',
    'trace_id': 'trace-123',
    'session_id': 'session-456',
    'tags': ['prod', 'v1'],
    'trace_metadata': {'user_type': 'premium'}
}

All metadata is exported as OpenTelemetry span attributes with 'langfuse.*' prefix for easy filtering and analysis in the Langfuse UI.

## Configuration
@ -147,6 +147,41 @@ The integration automatically collects the following data:
- **Metadata**: User ID, session ID, custom tags (if provided)
- **Error Information**: Exception details and stack traces (if errors occur)
## Metadata Support
All metadata fields available in the vanilla Langfuse integration are now **fully supported** when you use the OTEL integration.
- Any key you pass in the `metadata` dictionary (`generation_name`, `trace_id`, `session_id`, `tags`, and the rest) is exported as an OpenTelemetry span attribute.
- Attribute names are prefixed with `langfuse.` so you can filter or search for them easily in your observability backend.
Examples: `langfuse.generation.name`, `langfuse.trace.id`, `langfuse.trace.session_id`.
### Passing Metadata Example
```python
response = litellm.completion(
model="gpt-3.5-turbo",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
metadata={
"generation_name": "welcome-message",
"trace_id": "trace-123",
"session_id": "sess-42",
"tags": ["prod", "beta-user"]
}
)
```
The resulting span will contain attributes similar to:
```
langfuse.generation.name = "welcome-message"
langfuse.trace.id = "trace-123"
langfuse.trace.session_id = "sess-42"
langfuse.trace.tags = ["prod", "beta-user"]
```
Use the **Langfuse UI** (Traces tab) to search, filter and analyse spans that contain the `langfuse.*` attributes.
The OTEL exporter in this integration sends data directly to Langfuses OTLP HTTP endpoint; it is **not** intended for Grafana, Honeycomb, Datadog, or other generic OTEL back-ends.
## Authentication
The integration uses HTTP Basic Authentication with your Langfuse public and secret keys:
