The way the MCP HTTP streamable class is written, the headers are set at instantiation, which encourages folks to set headers once outside of the workflow.
For OTEL's tracing to work between AF and the MCP servers, we want to propagate the trace and span ID to the MCP servers in the calls.
This PR adds another header to MCP HTTP calls (disabled by default) with the standard OTEL headers. I've tested this on FastMCP with the starlette instrumentation and the traces to the MCPs are propagated correctly.
