Get Trace/Span ID from RUM agentless monitoring data

[JoSk]

Hi, we may run into a situation where the whole DT environment may be agentless.

RUM data will be received via manual JS injection and there are discussions to add OpenTelemetry data from the backend.

Now to connect the whole thing this will only work if the frontend forwards the W3C trace metadata/header as far as I know. Right now we only have some agentless RUM data. Could we already check whether this info (traceparent for example) exists in the RUM data somewhere? (there are no traces or services to be seen yet without OpenTelemetry obviously).

traceparent is provided by the frontend. AFAIK RUM js won't create those headers
