Java-Logging: OpenTelemetry spans are ignored as parents for LogRecords #1595
Description
Tracking the same issue as googleapis/google-cloud-go#9302 to propagate correct TraceId and SpanId for logging and tracing correlation.
Client
java-logging
Context
In java-logging libraries, the current implementation will always use a remote trace ID and span ID parsed from HTTP headers that originate from outside the application.
Expected behavior
If the user is using opentelemetry instrumentation, we want to use the traceID and spanID of the span that OpenTelemetry created. This way, when a user looks for logs associated with that span, the logs produced by this logging library will appear.
