Why not use the pull subs in this PR?

I used the new automation from elastic/elastic-agent-changelog-tool#213 to generate/format the list items. That automation will not use the subs because it will not be aware of what subs are available in each repo.

* Update OTel components to v0.130.0.

### Fixes [fleet-elastic-agent-9.1.3-fixes]

**Elastic Agent**

* Upgrade to Go 1.24.6. [#9287](https://github.com/elastic/elastic-agent/pull/9287)

* On Windows, retry saving the Agent information file to disk. [#9224](https://github.com/elastic/elastic-agent/pull/9224) [#5862](https://github.com/elastic/elastic-agent/issues/5862)

Saving the Agent information file involves renaming/moving a file to its final destination. However, on Windows, it is sometimes not possible to rename/move a file to its destination file because the destination file is locked by another process (e.g. antivirus software). For such situations, we now retry the save operation on Windows.
