Strip dead OTel event noise from telemetry compatibility paths

The open build no longer exports OpenTelemetry events, but several user-prompt, tool, hook, API, and survey paths were still constructing and calling a no-op logOTelEvent helper. This removes those dead calls, drops the now-unused helper module, and deletes an unreferenced GrowthBook experiment event artifact so the remaining compatibility layer is less distracting during future audits.

Constraint: Keep the local logEvent and tracing compatibility surfaces untouched where they still structure control flow
Constraint: Avoid touching unrelated bridge and session changes already present in the worktree
Rejected: Remove sessionTracing compatibility entirely | Call surface is still broad and intertwined with non-telemetry control flow
Rejected: Leave no-op OTel event calls in place | They add audit noise without preserving behavior
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Continue treating remaining telemetry-named helpers as removable only when their call sites are proven behavior-free
Tested: bun test src/services/analytics/index.test.ts src/components/FeedbackSurvey/submitTranscriptShare.test.ts
Tested: bun run ./scripts/build.ts
Not-tested: bun x tsc --noEmit (repository has pre-existing unrelated type errors)
