Based on testing, this has marginal impact on storage but decreases the size of the _tsids from 21B-36B to 18B-21B.

A variation of #133631 that creates even smaller _tsids, fixed at 16 bytes.
The impact on index size is marginal but has the potential to speed up querying.
One tradeoff is that it's lightly more prone to collisions, as this is using 112 bits instead of 128 bits for the "uniqueness portion" of the tsid.
According to the Birthday attack simple approximation formula, it would take about 100 trillion time series to have a one in a million chance for a collision:$\sqrt{2^{1+112-20}}$ .
While we need to account for the hash not being perfectly balanced, this should be safe.
However, we should test this also on non-OTel datasets.
