Add Falco to OpenTelemetry Registry

[agardnerIT]

What to document

Falcosidekick should be added to the OTEL registry so people can discover the integration.

@Issif @agardnerIT if you wouldn't mind i would like to work on this issue

@Issif
Before I make the pr i would like some clarification

1. Authorship — Are you okay with a non-maintainer community contributor submitting/authoring the registry entry, or would you prefer a Falcosidekick maintainer be listed as author (or co-listed alongside me)

2. registryType — Since OTLP export (traces/logs/metrics) is built directly into the binary via config/env vars rather than a separate plugin, I'm planning to list this as application integration. Does that match how you'd want it categorized, or would you prefer utilities?

3. Docs link — There are three separate output docs (otlp_traces.md, otlp_logs.md, otlp_metrics.md). Should the registry docs field point to the general docs/outputs/ folder, or is there a preferred single page?

4. isNative — Can you confirm the OTLP output uses the actual OpenTelemetry SDK/exporters under the hood (not a hand-rolled OTLP-shaped payload)? Want to set this field accurately.

5. Description wording — Any preferred phrasing for how the Falco↔OTel integration should be described, to match your project's messaging/branding? (Optional or I can put a default description from the docs )

OK for me

2. registryType — Since OTLP export (traces/logs/metrics) is built directly into the binary via config/env vars rather than a separate plugin, I'm planning to list this as application integration. Does that match how you'd want it categorized, or would you prefer utilities?

application integration sounds good to me

3. Docs link — There are three separate output docs (otlp_traces.md, otlp_logs.md, otlp_metrics.md). Should the registry docs field point to the general docs/outputs/ folder, or is there a preferred single page?

you can create a new page referring the 3 others and use its URL

4. isNative — Can you confirm the OTLP output uses the actual OpenTelemetry SDK/exporters under the hood (not a hand-rolled OTLP-shaped payload)? Want to set this field accurately.

I confirm, see the go.mod:
