Refactor trace metadata handling for improved flexibility

- Updated `update_current_trace` function to accept dynamic keyword arguments, simplifying the process of updating trace metadata.
- Enhanced `Trace` class to merge new metadata with existing fields, allowing for more efficient metadata management.

This refactor aims to streamline trace updates and improve code maintainability.
