This follows a recommendation from the OpenTelemetry injector SIG. The difference between usercustomize and sitecustomize is that usercustomize.py will typically be ignored when using venv (because ENABLE_USER_SITE is set to False for venvs). Notably, some people use venv even in containerized Python applications. sitecustomize.py will typically not be ignored, even in venv setups. Thus using the sitecustomize mechanism seems preferable for our purposes.
