Populate trace_ids in mobile replay events to enable searching replays by trace ID

Assessment

Description
Problem
When searching for replays by trace ID in Sentry's Explore UI, mobile replays from React Native are not discoverable. While web replay (via JS SDK) collects trace_ids, the mobile replay integration does not.
Solution
The mobileReplayIntegration should collect trace IDs when transactions are captured and pass them to the native replay system.
Reference implementations
- JS (web replay): https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-javascript/blob/30eb68fff5077211c30c61ba74625e66ab514870/packages/replay-internal/src/coreHandlers/handleAfterSendEvent.ts#L34-L43
- Java (Android native): https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-java/pull/5473
Key points
- Collect trace IDs when transactions are successfully captured during replay recording
- Limit to max 100 trace IDs per segment (matching JS SDK)
- Need a bridge mechanism to pass trace IDs from JS transactions to native replay
- Android native SDK (sentry-java) now supports
registerTraceId()— need similar support in iOS (sentry-cocoa)
Dependencies
- sentry-cocoa needs to implement
trace_idssupport first (or in parallel)
