… agentic instrumentors When AGENT_OBSERVABILITY_ENABLED=true, auto-detect registered third-party instrumentors (e.g. OpenInference) and disable conflicting AWS native ones to prevent double instrumentation. Add AWS_AGENTIC_INSTRUMENTATION_OPT_IN env var to let users override auto-detection and force AWS native instrumentors over third-party ones.

…cs endpoints (#732) *Description of changes:* - Restore the `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` guard that was dropped in #729 - When the base `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` is set (e.g. to a local collector), skip defaulting `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT` and `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_LOGS_ENDPOINT` to the direct-to-AWS URLs so the OTel SDK honors the base URL

…instrumentors (#417) parities: aws-observability/aws-otel-python-instrumentation#729 - Checks existing downloaded packages, if a conflict is found, the ADOT instrumentation skips itself instead of producing duplicate spans. - AWS_AGENTIC_INSTRUMENTATION_OPT_IN=true overrides the detection and forces ADOT instrumentations to enable regardless of third-party presence.

Case 1: New user, only ADOT installed (no OpenInference)
