Add OpenTelemetry distributed tracing (Tempo + Beyla eBPF) ( #286 )
...
## Summary
Adds the third observability pillar — **distributed tracing** — alongside existing metrics (Prometheus) and logs (Loki).
- **Grafana Tempo 2.10.1** on minikube-indri for trace storage with 7d retention, OTLP receivers, and `metrics_generator` that remote-writes span-metrics (RED) to Prometheus
- **Beyla eBPF auto-instrumentation** via a privileged Alloy DaemonSet on ringtail — instruments HTTP services (Frigate, ntfy, Ollama, Immich) without code changes
- **Grafana integration** — Tempo datasource with trace↔log and trace↔metrics correlation, plus Loki derivedFields for trace ID linking
- **Prometheus** scrapes Tempo operational metrics
### Architecture
```
ringtail (k3s) indri (minikube)
┌──────────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────┐
│ Alloy+Beyla (eBPF) │──OTLP HTTP────────→ │ Tempo │
│ ↳ Frigate, ntfy, │ via tailnet │ ↳ trace storage │
│ Ollama, Immich │ │ ↳ RED → Prometheus │
└──────────────────────┘ │ │

## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] Sync `apps` app to pick up new Application definitions
- [ ] `argocd app set tempo --revision feature/otel-tracing && argocd app sync tempo`
- [ ] Verify Tempo pod: `kubectl --context=minikube-indri get pods -n monitoring -l app=tempo`
- [ ] Verify Tempo ready: port-forward 3200 and `curl localhost:3200/ready`
- [ ] Verify Tailscale ingresses: `kubectl --context=minikube-indri get ingress -n monitoring`
- [ ] `argocd app set alloy-tracing-ringtail --revision feature/otel-tracing && argocd app sync alloy-tracing-ringtail`
- [ ] Check Beyla discovery in alloy-tracing logs on ringtail
- [ ] Sync grafana-config for updated datasources
- [ ] Sync prometheus for updated scrape config
- [ ] Test Grafana Tempo datasource connection
- [ ] Generate test traffic and search traces in Grafana Explore → Tempo
- [ ] After merge: reset all ArgoCD app revisions back to main
