Research direction

Start with the Play Framework documentation linked in the issue and inspect how existing Disco plugins are organized in this agent. Define the plugin's instrumentation scope for Play's multithreaded applications and verify that Play applications are auto-instrumented; the issue does not name specific files or tests.

Description

enhancement

Play Framework is a Java web framework that does not use servlets but is often used in multi-threaded applications. Therefore it would be a good fit to be auto-instrumented by the agent. We would likely need to write a new Disco plugin to add such support.
