EPIC Goal

What are we trying to solve here?

Upstream has deprecated prom-client for a while now in favour of OpenTelemetry.  We should start investigating how to support this

Background/Feature Origin

There isn't much documentation on this:

• here's a tutorial
• There's some new scripts in the backend to:
  • invoke instrumentation
  • run a locally installed prometheus
• The metrics are exposed on a new port 9464
• The scaffolder and catalog metrics are still on the old prom-client  so those will need to be migrated upstream

Why is this important?

We can't rely on deprecated code, let's move away from this
