Coordinate with https://github.com/lost-rob0t/starintel-server/issues/128.

Add optional operator-controlled diagnostics for the StarIntel router CLI.

Optional config/init observability block; default OFF.
No config means no exporter/network traffic and no observability dependency.
Instrument command duration/outcome, router/API connection lifecycle, retries, and failures using safe bounded metadata.
Never export command arguments containing target data, credentials, document contents, or tokens by default.
Auth for OTLP/OpenObserve comes from env/secret references, not checked-in config.
Exporter failure never changes command semantics or exit result.
Tests cover disabled zero-network and exporter-down behavior.
Document generic OTLP/OpenObserve example.
