Research direction

Start with the restate.Context ABC and restate.server_context.ServerInvocationContext, focusing on the existing invocation and handler fields. Expose both through the public context interface and verify that workers or wrapper libraries can access them without depending on the implementation type.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

restate.server_context.ServerInvocationContext has invocation and handler fields. These are very useful for things like telemetry, logging or adding special handling using invocation IDs. However, these fields are hidden by the restate.Context interface.

Can we publicly expose these two fields on the restate.Context ABC, so that workers or wrapper libraries don't have to access the type of the underlying implementation?
