Polish "Allow configuring Micrometer Tracing MDC keys"

Derive logging.pattern.correlation from the configured MDC keys so that
log correlation keeps working when the keys are customized, instead of
silently rendering a blank correlation field.

Reject empty MDC keys and only clear Brave's default correlation fields
when the keys have been customized, so that applications using the
defaults are unaffected if Brave adds a default field.

Replace the tests that asserted on bean wiring with integration tests
covering the MDC contents, plus a smoke test for the log output.

See gh-50595
