Streamlines the vendored mysql2 instrumentation to use Sentry's span APIs instead of the OpenTelemetry tracing API, and removes the code paths that are dead in Sentry's context.

Mirrors the approach in #21481 (mongoose).

Notes

Blockers for startSpan*

mysql2 ends its span manually since completion fires via stream events/callbacks after the sync wrapper returns, which startSpan's auto-end misses. Worse, the returned Query is thenable but not a real Promise with a .then that throws, so startSpan/startSpanManual would throw on every query. startInactiveSpan leaves the Query untouched.

Semantic Conventions Attributes

Dropping the OTEL_SEMCONV_STABILITY_OPT_IN path means mysql2 spans now always emit the legacy semantic-convention attributes (db.system, db.statement, db.connection_string, db.name, db.user, net.peer.*).

Modernizing the semconv is deferred as a separate, breaking change.

Fixes #20739

I think I'd opt to change all of these to something non-otel in v11, for now this indicates that it comes from otel instrumentation, which it still is (just our own)

I think in this instrumentation case we can move most of the test cases to a real one. Will do that.

Refactors the vendored mysql2 instrumentation to use Sentry's span APIs
instead of the OpenTelemetry tracing API, and removes the config paths
that are dead in Sentry's context.

- Replace `tracer.startSpan` with `startInactiveSpan`. mysql2's `query`/
  `execute` complete via stream events or a patched callback that fire
  after the synchronous wrapper returns, so the span must outlive a sync
  scope and is ended manually. `startSpan`/`startSpanManual` are unusable
  here: the returned `Query` is thenable-but-not-a-Promise, and its core
  `.then` is a trap that throws, so the promise-probing in
  `handleCallbackErrors` would throw on every query.
- Bake the origin in via `SEMANTIC_ATTRIBUTE_SENTRY_ORIGIN` instead of an
  `index.ts` responseHook.
- Drop the `OTEL_SEMCONV_STABILITY_OPT_IN` dual-emission and the unused
  `responseHook`, query masking, and SQL-commenter config. The
  integration only ever passed the origin responseHook, so these were
  unreachable. mysql2 spans now always emit the legacy semconv attributes
  (`db.system`, `db.statement`, `net.peer.*`); op is derived downstream.
- Drop the blanket eslint-disable, type the module exports shallowly.
- Add unit tests against a fake connection and assert origin/db.statement
  in the integration suite.

Fixes #20739
… test

The fake-connection unit test used a plain EventEmitter/callback, which is
not thenable and so masked mysql2's real thenable `Query` behavior. Move
that coverage to the real-package integration suite instead:

- scenario now also runs `execute` and a failing query
- integration test asserts the execute span and the errored span's
  `internal_error` status

Replace the fake patch test with a focused pure-function unit test for
`getConnectionPrototypeToInstrument`, the only version-sensitive logic
(own-prototype vs. inherited base-class layout across mysql2 majors).

Wrong error status assertion

Medium Severity

The failing-query expectation uses status: 'internal_error', but instrumentation sets span status with message: err.message. For a missing table, MySQL supplies a concrete message, so getStatusMessage returns that text rather than internal_error.

Sure

The vendored types.ts had collapsed to a single re-export alias
(MySQL2InstrumentationConfig = InstrumentationConfig). Use
InstrumentationConfig directly in the instrumentation and delete the file.

Error span status mismatches test

Medium Severity

Failed queries set the span status message to the raw MySQL err.message, while the new integration test expects status: 'internal_error'. Serialized span status uses that message verbatim, so the assertion and runtime behavior introduced in this change do not align.

Bug: The mysql2 instrumentation incorrectly uses the 'result' event to end spans for streaming queries, causing premature span closure for multi-row queries and span leaks for zero-row queries.
Severity: HIGH

Suggested Fix

To correctly measure the full duration of the streaming query, the event listener should be bound to the 'end' event instead of the 'result' event. Change .once('result', () => { endSpan(); }); to .once('end', () => { endSpan(); });. This ensures the span is only closed after all rows have been received.

Location:

Potential issue: The `mysql2` instrumentation for streaming queries incorrectly uses the
`'result'` event to end a trace span. The `'result'` event fires for each row returned
by the query. For queries that return multiple rows, this causes the span to end
prematurely after the first row, resulting in an inaccurate duration measurement. For
queries that return zero rows, the `'result'` event never fires, causing the span to
never be closed and leading to a resource leak.

While this looks technically correct, we need to preserve the upstream instrumentation and track this individually later.
