What does this PR do? What is the motivation?

Documents how to configure the APM SDKs to export traces using OTLP rather than the default Datadog protocol. This allows users to send traces to any OTLP-compatible receiver, rather than just the Datadog Agent.

This change was recently released in several language SDKs.
