Sorry, something went wrong.
…options Expose `trace_lifecycle` and `ignore_spans` as top-level `sentry_sdk.init()` parameters instead of requiring them under `_experiments`. The `_experiments` keys remain supported for backwards compatibility, but the top-level value now takes precedence: when both sources are set, `has_span_streaming_enabled` and `is_ignored_span` respect the top-level `trace_lifecycle` and fall back to `_experiments` only when it is unset. Add a validation warning when `ignore_spans` is set but span streaming is not enabled, since the option only takes effect in stream mode. Update the span-streaming docstrings to reference the new top-level configuration. Fixes PY-2609 Fixes #6820

An explicit top-level ignore_spans=[] was treated as unset, letting _experiments rules leak through. Use an is-not-None check so top-level config wins whenever provided, including an empty list meant to disable ignoring.
