Express integration adds to @sentry/core bundle size
Low Severity
Exporting the Express integration (~700 lines across five new files) from @sentry/core increases the core package size that ships to all platforms, including browsers where Express is never used. While tree-shaking can eliminate unused exports, not all bundler configurations guarantee it. The PR author acknowledges this and suggests exploring splitting integrations out of core. Flagged because this was mentioned in the rules file.

This extracts the functionality from the OTel Express intstrumentation,
replacing it with a portable standalone integration in `@sentry/core`,
which can be extended and applied to patch any Express module import in
whatever way makes sense for the platform in question.
Currently in node, that is still an OpenTelemetry intstrumentation, but
just handling the automatic module load instrumentation, not the entire
tracing integration.
This is somewhat a proof of concept, to see what it takes to port a
fairly invovled OTel integration into a state where it can support all
of the platforms that we care about, but it does impose a bit less of a
translation layer between OTel and Sentry semantics (for example, no
need to use the no-op `span.recordException()`).
User-visible changes (beyond the added export in `@sentry/core`):
- Express router spans have an origin of `auto.http.express` rather than
`auto.http.otel.express`, since it's no longer technically an otel
integration.
- The empty `measurements: {}` object is no longer attached to span
data, as that was an artifact of otel's `span.recordError`, which is a
no-op anyway, and no longer executed.
Obviously this is not a full clean-room reimplementation, and relies on
the fact that the opentelemetry-js-contrib project is Apache 2.0
licensed. I included the link to the upstream license in the index file
for the Express integration, but there may be a more appropriate way to
ensure that the license is respected properly. It was arguably a
derivative work already, but simple redistribution is somewhat different
than re-implementation with subtly different context.
This reduces the node overhead and makes the Express instrumentation
portable to other SDKs, but it of course *increases* the bundle size of
`@sentry/core` considerably. It would be a good idea to explore
splitting out integrations from core, so that they're bundled and
analyzed separately, rather than shipping to all SDKs that extend core.
