Update Jaeger Tracing Documentation for Jeager V2 #4920

@MyMirelHub

Description

@MyMirelHub

What content needs to be created or modified?

The existing Jaeger tracing documentation (open-telemetry-collector-jaeger.md) is outdated, focusing on Jaeger V1 and a separate OpenTelemetry Collector. It needs to be updated to cover Jaeger V2, which natively supports OpenTelemetry (OTLP) protocol, using the OpenTelemetry Operator for deployment and direct tracing from Dapr.

Describe the solution you'd like

Update the documentation to:

  • Replace Jaeger V1 content with Jaeger V2 (version 2.11).
  • Provide steps to deploy Jaeger V2 with the OpenTelemetry Operator in Kubernetes, using in-memory storage (memstore) as the example.
  • Include a note recommending persistent storage backends (e.g., Cassandra, Elasticsearch) for production.
  • Update self-hosted instructions to use Jaeger V2 for consistency.
  • Update references to Jaeger V2 documentation (https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/2.11/...).

Where should the new material be placed?

In the existing docs/open-telemetry-collector/open-telemetry-collector-jaeger.md
