Python: [Feature]: Better Observability for Agent Creation

[wdrone]

Description

The create agent span no longer appears to be used. Ideally when we create an agent any noteworthy actions that occur such as MCP initialization should fall under an agent framework span. Here is an example of the MCP calls before any agent framework span. Note the HTTP calls to the MCP server prior to the Invoke Agent span.

After reviewing the OTel GenAI Semantic Conventions, the \create_agent\ span is intended for remote agent creation (e.g. hosted agent services), not local agent construction. The MCP initialization observability gap should be addressed via MCP client spans instead.
