[symfony-auto-instrumentation] Split package into different packages

[joaojacome]

Due to the possibility of using Symfony components on non-Symfony projects, I'd like to propose splitting the current Symfony Auto-instrumentation package into three different packages:

• opentelemetry-auto-symfony-messenger
• opentelemetry-auto-symfony-http-kernel
• opentelemetry-auto-symfony-http-client

The existing opentelemetry-auto-symfony would become a meta-package for the new packages.

This will allow us to selectively enable those instrumentations.

If the main goal is to be able to enable/disable different parts of the auto-instrumentation, then does it help to know that open-telemetry/opentelemetry-configuration#91 is coming, which will allow fine-grained configuration of auto-instrumentation?
Once we get v1.1 tagged of our core packages, we plan to move auto-instrumentation packages across to supporting this type of configuration. There's an example of how this works: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-php/tree/main/examples/src

Looks like that would work too, I'm happy with that :)

Although, I still think the Symfony packages should be split in different packages, as they actually instrument different components.

IMO splitting the packages too much creates too much overhead, configuration is preferable.

Symfony itself uses Framework bundle as a catch all instrumentation for a bunch of components, not each component gets a dedicated bundle. I don't see why OTEL instrumentation wouldn't do the same.
