feat(observability): default-on OTLP beat export (spec 08 §4)

[divo12]

Summary

Implements chorus spec 08 §4, and default-on rather than opt-in: the OTel SDK is a core dependency and Chorus wires with_otel_export unless you disable it.

load_otel_config()           # enabled unless OTEL_SDK_DISABLED is truthy
  endpoint = OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT or "http://localhost:4318"

OtelSpanSink maps run.* / llm.call / subagent events onto a nested beat span tree, with the eval verdict landing on the root as chorus.eval.*. Wired through CLI beats, role chat and the Chorus facade. Plain OTLP/HTTP — works with Langfuse / Tempo / Jaeger, no vendor SDK lock-in. Opt out with OTEL_SDK_DISABLED=true.

Note the default-on tradeoff measured on the dream side (dream#93): span creation is sub-millisecond, but with no collector on :4318 the exporter retries and adds ~6 s at process shutdown. Set OTEL_SDK_DISABLED=true in environments without a collector.

This is chorus's own provider/exporter/event-mapping surface, not a duplicate of dream's: dream exposes generic tracing primitives (Tracer, JsonlTracer, TraceWriter), not an OTLP provider API, so there is nothing to reuse yet. If a shared OTLP seam is wanted, it should land as an explicit dream public API first and chorus should migrate to it in a separate change.

Also included: the Postgres test fixture started pg_ctl without overriding unix_socket_directories, so it tried to create its socket lock under /var/run/postgresql and failed in any unprivileged environment; it now allocates a writable temp socket dir.

Test plan

• uv sync --all-extras --dev
• CHORUS_PG_BIN=... uv run pytest tests/observability/test_otel_export.py -q — 7 passed
• uv run python evals/otel/eval_step1_chorus_otlp.py
• uv run ruff check src tests / uv run mypy — clean (60 files)
• Point OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT at a local collector and run one beat

Closing: implements OTLP export as default-on (OTEL_SDK_DISABLED opt-out, localhost:4318 fallback), contradicting merged spec 08 §4 which mandates opt-in with zero cost when unset (no OTel import unless OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT is set). Exporter/instrumentation code is salvageable — please resubmit flipped to opt-in gating. Resolves the docs/intervention.md entry.
