Update Rust tracing layer recommendations #20344

Open

Description

@sentry-junior

Update the current Rust tracing documentation to clarify the recommended layer choices:

  • Recommend the spans and logs layers as the default options for most users.
  • Present the error layer as an option for users who want Sentry issues from tracing error-level events, noting that these use the error quota, which is typically more expensive.
  • Keep the breadcrumbs layer de-emphasized as primarily supporting legacy workflows.
