Change usage reporting defaults backwards-incompatibly to send less data #6051

Description

@glasser

In order to make usage reporting have better performance and less potential PII leakage by default, we should change the default usage reporting to send even less information by default. We previously changed usage reporting to make variable and HTTP header reporting opt-in. We should continue down this path to make sending error bodies in traces opt-in (though we should still probably track the number of errors by default). Furthermore, now that the Unified Reporting and referenced field usage projects are done, we can change the defaults to make traces be an opt-in feature (which gives you access to traces on the Operations page, field execution counts on the Fields page, and field latencies in Explorer and VSCode timing hints) that isn’t on by default. This would mean that by default we would only send summarized statistics of operations, not any data about individual requests, and the only user-provided strings would be operation signatures (with literals removed as always).
