fix(tvix/tracing): reduce the error logs of otlp if collector is offline r/8273
The problem is that opentelemetry_otlp tonic batch exporter tries to
exports if either the `scheduled_delay` or if the
`max_export_batch_size` is reached. Per default the
`max_export_batch_size` is set to 512 spans, which means that we try to
export these spans once that counter is reached. Each export will then
try to connect to the exporter (if that not already happening) and will
result in a `tcp connect error`.
Increasing the max_export_batch_size to 4096 will then ensure that the
export only happens if the `scheduled_delay` is met after the 10
seconds.
`max_queue_size` is also increased, because `max_export_batch_size`
should not be greater than `max_queue_size`, so similar to the default
config its set to `max_export_batch_size * 4`.
This will reduce the amount of tries to otlp if the collector is not
available and otlp enabled.

  - Maybe drop `--log-level` entirely, and only use `RUST_LOG` env exclusively?
    `debug`,`trace` level across all crates is a bit useless, and `RUST_LOG` can
    be much more granular…
- - The OTLP stack is quite spammy if there's no OTLP collector running on
-   localhost.
-   https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otel/configuration/sdk-environment-variables/
-   mentions a `OTEL_SDK_DISABLED` env var, but it defaults to false, so they
-   suggest enabling OTLP by default.
-   We currently have a `--otlp` cmdline arg which explicitly needs to be set to
-   false to stop it, in line with that "enabled by default" philosophy
-   Do some research if we can be less spammy. While OTLP support is
-   feature-flagged, it should not get in the way too much, so we can actually
-   have it compiled in most of the time.
  - gRPC trace propagation (cl/10532 + @simon)
    We need to wire trace propagation into our gRPC clients, so if we collect
    traces both for the client and server they will be connected.
