What does this PR do?

Two improvements to the tracer FFI surface in libdd-data-pipeline-ffi:

  1. Use ddog_MaybeError for tracer construction functions. Switch
    ddog_tracer_span_new, set_meta, set_metric, trace_chunks_new,
    begin_chunk, and push_span from Option<Box<ExporterError>> to
    MaybeError (Option<ddog_Error>). These functions only produce error
    messages — the error code is never used by callers — so the simpler
    ddog_Error type is sufficient. send_trace_chunks retains
    ExporterError because callers need the error code for HTTP response
    classification.

  2. Return ByteSlice from ddog_trace_exporter_response_get_body.
    Replace the separate *const u8 return + out_len out-parameter with
    a single ByteSlice return value, matching the existing slice
    conventions in libdd-common-ffi.

Motivation

FUP to #1952. C consumers (dd-trace-rb) can now use the existing
read_ddogerr_string_and_drop / get_error_details_and_drop helpers
from datadog_ruby_common.h instead of custom error handling for tracer
construction functions. The ByteSlice return avoids an awkward split
between return value and out-parameter for the response body.

Additional Notes

AI was used to accelerate implementation; all code was reviewed and understood.

How to test the change?

cargo test -p libdd-data-pipeline-ffi --lib

All 40 tests pass (13 tracer + 3 response + 24 trace_exporter).

error[unsound]: Rand is unsound with a custom logger using `rand::rng()`

    ├ Advisory: https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2026-0097
    ├ It has been reported (by @lopopolo) that the `rand` library is [unsound](https://rust-lang.github.io/unsafe-code-guidelines/glossary.html#soundness-of-code--of-a-library) (i.e. that safe code using the public API can cause Undefined Behaviour) when all the following conditions are met:
      
      - The `log` and `thread_rng` features are enabled
      - A [custom logger](https://docs.rs/log/latest/log/#implementing-a-logger) is defined
      - The custom logger accesses `rand::rng()` (previously `rand::thread_rng()`) and calls any `TryRng` (previously `RngCore`) methods on `ThreadRng`
      - The `ThreadRng` (attempts to) reseed while called from the custom logger (this happens every 64 kB of generated data)
      - Trace-level logging is enabled or warn-level logging is enabled and the random source (the `getrandom` crate) is unable to provide a new seed
      
      `TryRng` (previously `RngCore`) methods for `ThreadRng` use `unsafe` code to cast `*mut BlockRng<ReseedingCore>` to `&mut BlockRng<ReseedingCore>`. When all the above conditions are met this results in an aliased mutable reference, violating the Stacked Borrows rules. Miri is able to detect this violation in sample code. Since construction of [aliased mutable references is Undefined Behaviour](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/nomicon/references.html), the behaviour of optimized builds is hard to predict.

      Note this library does not provide an API for asserting URI names, and URI name constraints are otherwise not implemented.  URI name constraints are now rejected unconditionally.

    ├ Permitted subtree name constraints for DNS names were accepted for certificates asserting a wildcard name.
      
      This was incorrect because, given a name constraint of `accept.example.com`, `*.example.com` could feasibly allow a name of `reject.example.com` which is outside the constraint.
      This is very similar to [CVE-2025-61727](https://go.dev/issue/76442).

    ├ ## Impact
      
      When user-provided input is provided to any type that parses with the RFC 2822 format, a denial of
      service attack via stack exhaustion is possible. The attack relies on formally deprecated and
      rarely-used features that are part of the RFC 2822 format used in a malicious manner. Ordinary,
      non-malicious input will never encounter this scenario.
      
      ## Patches
      
      A limit to the depth of recursion was added in v0.3.47. From this version, an error will be returned
      rather than exhausting the stack.
      
      ## Workarounds
      
      Limiting the length of user input is the simplest way to avoid stack exhaustion, as the amount of
      the stack consumed would be at most a factor of the length of the input.

P2 Badge Restore panic guarding around capacity allocations

When a C caller passes an oversized capacity value (for example usize::MAX from a bad FFI input), Vec::with_capacity panics; because this extern "C" entry point no longer wraps the body in catch_panic, the process aborts instead of returning a ddog_MaybeError. The previous implementation caught this and returned an error, and ddog_tracer_trace_chunks_begin_chunk now has the same unguarded allocation path.

Switch tracer span and chunk construction functions from
`Option<Box<ExporterError>>` to `MaybeError` (`Option<ddog_Error>`).
These functions only produce error messages (the error code is never
used by callers), so the simpler `ddog_Error` type is sufficient.

This lets C consumers use the existing `read_ddogerr_string_and_drop`
and `get_error_details_and_drop` helpers instead of custom error
handling.

`send_trace_chunks` retains `ExporterError` because callers need
the error code for HTTP response classification.
Replace the separate `*const u8` return + `out_len` out-parameter with
a single `ByteSlice` return value. This bundles pointer and length
into one FFI-safe struct, matching the existing slice conventions in
libdd-common-ffi and avoiding the awkward split between return value
and out-parameter.
Wrap the `fields` parameter in `Option` so the function can check for
null and return an error instead of undefined behavior. cbindgen
produces the same C signature (`const ddog_TracerSpanFields *`).
