…r span Mark `graphql.operation.type` as `sampling_relevant: true` on the `span.graphql.server` span, enabling head-based samplers to make decisions based on operation type (query/mutation/subscription). This follows the pattern from HTTP (`http.request.method`), DB (`db.operation.name`), and GenAI (`gen_ai.operation.name`) where the primary operation classifier on the root span is marked as sampling relevant. Internal spans are not marked since they inherit the sampling decision from the root span.
