Hi team, This PR updates the Spring Boot documentation for Micrometer Tracing to clarify the modular tracing support in Spring Boot 4. It ensures that users understand that spring-boot-starter-actuator alone does not enable tracing, and that a supported tracing bridge + tracer implementation is required. Thanks for reviewing! |

Thanks for the PR, but this isn't what we're looking for. |

Fixes #48576
This pull request updates the Spring Boot documentation for Micrometer Tracing to clarify the modular tracing support introduced in Spring Boot 4.
Changes include:
Emphasizing that having spring-boot-starter-actuator on the classpath alone does not enable tracing.
Explaining that tracing is fully auto-configured only when a supported tracing bridge and tracer implementation (e.g., OpenTelemetry bridge + Zipkin) are present.
Updating the "Getting Started" and "Tracer Implementations" sections to reflect this requirement, so developers understand which dependencies are needed to enable tracing.
This ensures that users following the documentation will correctly configure tracing without confusion.
