This is the seam for error _reporting_: rather than integrating with any particular external service, Errata emits a telemetry event that your application handles — attaching a handler that forwards to Sentry, a metrics backend, or wherever errors should go. The vendor integration stays in your application; Errata stays out of it. The event is `[:errata, :error]`, with: * measurements `%{system_time: integer(), count: 1}` — `:count` is always `1`, so `Telemetry.Metrics.counter/2` works out of the box * metadata containing the full `:error` struct plus `:kind`, `:reason`, `:error_type`, and `:context` as top-level keys (simple values suitable for use as metric tags) Options: * `:metadata` — a map or keyword list of extra metadata merged into the event. The standard keys above are protected: on a key collision, the standard value wins. * `:measurements` — extra measurements merged into the event, with the standard measurements likewise protected. * `:log` — also log the error via `log/2`. `false` (the default) emits telemetry only; `true` logs at `:error`; an atom level (e.g. `:warning`) logs at that level.
