feat(bd-593): add OTLP/HTTP receiver on :4318 (protobuf + JSON)

Mount OTLP/HTTP handlers on the existing Express web server via a second
HTTP listener so OTLP endpoints are reachable at the standard :4318
address without a separate process. Accepts both application/x-protobuf
and application/json content types, routing decoded records through the
same Normalizer pipeline as the gRPC receiver.
