If there is an exception in the code, the cli_main function captures it,
saves the traceback and exits the process.
With the original tracing span, the instrumentation never saw the actual
exception, only SystemExit. This meant the span was not recorded as
failed. (Technically python-opentelemetry 1.31.0 does record it, but
that change was reverted in 1.32.0.)
It is somewhat tricky to structure the code so that the exception is
recorded implicitly. The status update to DOOMED must happen inside the
span (in order to propagate it to the trace). Thus a new function is
exported from the tracing module to record the exception explicitly
before it gets discarded and replaced with the exit.
