Adds a definition for "Telemetry" as a new glossary term, resolving #1164.

The entry follows the glossary style guide and template:

  • a quick summary explaining telemetry as the automated collection of data (logs, metrics, and traces)
  • "Problem it addresses" and "How it helps" sections
  • related terms linking to Observability, Debugging, and Distributed System

The definition is written to complement rather than duplicate the existing Observability term: observability describes a system property, while telemetry describes the data itself and the practice of collecting it.

Status is set to "Feedback Appreciated" for maintainer review.

Fixes #1164
