Subject: [PATCH] Fix Netty version conflict by upgrading o11yphant to 1.9.2
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This commit resolves a Netty version conflict that was causing the warning:
"NoClassDefFoundError: io/netty/util/internal/ClassInitializerUtil"

The issue was caused by multiple Netty versions in the dependency tree:
- Datastax Cassandra driver (3.11.3) brought in Netty 4.1.77.Final
- grpc-netty (1.35.0) brought in Netty 4.1.52.Final

This conflict prevented Netty from loading its native epoll transport,
causing it to fall back to NIO with a warning message.

Solution:
- Upgraded o11yphant from 1.9.1 to 1.9.2
  - Version 1.9.2 removed the grpc-netty dependency from o11yphant-trace-otel
- Removed direct grpc-netty dependency from embedder module

This is a cleaner solution than forcing Netty version alignment via BOM,
as it eliminates the conflicting dependency entirely.
