Thanks For your contribution !
Can you also add to the opentelemetry-bootstrap -a install command a flag support to disable the -U of pip install?
In a fresh environment (e.g., Docker build), there's nothing to upgrade, so the upgrade check is pure overhead

Thanks for the suggestion. Added a --no-upgrade flag to disable the -U option for fresh environments like Docker builds.

Description
Previously,
_run_installinbootstrap.pycalledpip installonce perpackage in a loop, causing multiple subprocess spawns, pip loads, and
dependency resolution passes. For a typical project with ~8 instrumentors,
this took 60-120 seconds.
This change batches all packages into a single
pip installcall, reducingit to 15-25 seconds (4-6x speedup).
Fixes #4484
