State the rules so they stay consistent across code, collector, Tempo,
dashboards, and docs:
- Per-span-unique field -> bare name (the span name carries the domain).
- Same concept on more than one span -> ONE shared key, reused verbatim and
distinguished by span name, never tagged with the emitting workflow
(e.g. ledger_hash, full_validation, proposal_trusted/validation_trusted).
Defined once in the base SpanNames.h and re-exported by each domain header.
- Collision qualifier <domain>_<field> only to separate DIFFERENT concepts that
share a word, or the OTel-reserved status key (rpc_status, consensus_state).
- Dotted xrpl.<...> is reserved for resource attributes (xrpl.network.*).
Updates CONTRIBUTING.md (permanent home) and OpenTelemetryPlan §2.3.3.
Bring the phase-1a code-sample cleanup into phase-1b.
Phase 1a deleted the two code-sample docs (04-code-samples.md,
POC_taskList.md) and stripped C++/config code blocks from the remaining
plan docs, replacing them with prose summaries and pointers to the real
source/config files.
Conflict resolution:
- 04-code-samples.md, POC_taskList.md: deletion wins (phase-1b's SpanGuard
rewrites of these files are intentionally dropped).
- 03/05/OpenTelemetryPlan.md: took phase-1a's code-block-free prose, but
kept phase-1b's accurate descriptions of the real telemetry code
(DiscardFlag.h, FilteringSpanProcessor, SpanGuard factory methods, and
the corrected file-count/file-list tables).
- presentation.md left untouched.

Bring the span attribute naming convention (phase 1a) into phase 1b.
Conflict resolution kept phase-1b's SpanGuard-based workflow and applied
the underscore naming convention to all non-code-sample text:
- Converted prose, tables, Mermaid labels, and TraceQL/PromQL query
references across the plan docs to the underscore form.
- Converted the two @code attribute-key examples in Telemetry.h
(command, tx_type).
- Left the code-sample files (04-code-samples.md, POC_taskList.md) and
03-implementation-strategy.md code blocks at the phase-1b version; the
code-sample docs are slated for removal on phase-1a.

Establish the single, authoritative naming convention for OpenTelemetry
span attribute keys so the code, collector, Tempo, dashboards, and docs
stay in sync.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: new "Telemetry span attribute naming" section under
the Style guide as the permanent, canonical home for the rules.
- OpenTelemetryPlan/02-design-decisions.md: new section 2.3.3 stating the
decided convention as design, and section 2.4 attribute schema realigned
to the underscore form (exact key spelling defers to the *SpanNames.h
constants).
- Sweep the remaining plan docs: convert dotted xrpl.<domain>.<field> span
attribute keys to the underscore form; leave span names and the
OTel-standard service.*/http.* and xrpl.network.* resource keys dotted.

BasicConfig.h moved from xrpl/basics/ to xrpl/config/ on develop
(PR #7095 / reorg). Phase 1b's telemetry headers still referenced the
old path, breaking a fresh compile with "BasicConfig.h: No such file or
directory". Point both telemetry includes at the new location.

Document that head sampling is intentionally fixed at 100% and no longer
exposes a sampling_ratio config knob. A per-node ratio let nodes make
divergent keep/drop decisions for the same distributed trace, producing
broken/partial traces; pinning at 1.0 with a ParentBased sampler keeps
decisions coherent across the network. Volume reduction is delegated to
collector-side tail sampling.

Flip the tracePeer Setup default and the trace_peer config parser
default from off to on, and update the example config and build doc to
match. Peer spans record only peer_id (a node-local numeric connection
id) plus trust/ledger metadata — no IP addresses or public keys — so
the privacy concern behind disabling it does not apply. The high-volume
characteristic is retained in the docs.

Flip trace_peer default false->true across the Phase-1a plan docs and
correct the rationale: peer spans record only peer_id (numeric local
connection id) plus trust/ledger metadata, never IP addresses or public
keys, so the 'includes addresses' caveat was inaccurate. The high-volume
note is retained.
