Make Beyla self connection metrics opt in
beyla is reporting self connections ( looks like tote bags) that don't add much value to service graph and rather makes it noisy
see live example asserts services link
see beyla metrics
Can we make this an opt-in feature, i.e. by default, don't report these metrics unless the user opts in.

Good idea! I guess you'd like us to do this for both the network metrics and the OTEL service graph metrics?
I was thinking
- Only Network .. the Tote bags are originating because of UDP peer-peer traffic we have, there are no real service calls
- Not OTel ... because that's real application traffic.
