feat!: use modern diagnostics_channel API

[secondfry]

Which problem is this PR solving?

I'm observing that instrumentation-undici does not work in Node.js 18.16.0 if code was started with no Internet access. I nailed it down to usage of channel.subscribe(onMessage) which was deprecated in Node.js 18.7.0.

Interestingly enough new API does not pass tests on all Node.js versions between 18.7.0 and 18.18.2. I think this is related to nodejs/node#47520. Thus I'm setting minimal engine version to 18.19.0.

Short description of the changes

Use diagnostics_channel.subscribe(name, onMessage) instead of channel.subscribe(onMessage).

Hi @secondfry

thanks for contributing to opentelemetry :)

IMHO the change you propose is the way to go since the API is deprecated but I would prefer not to drop support for node versions if possible. Have you thought to use the diagnostics_channel.subscribe API if available and fallback to channel.subscribe if not? this logic on which API should be used can also check for specific node versions if there is a known issue as you mention.

Cheers

@secondfry did you have time to think about my suggestion on nodejs support?

Hi @secondfry

If you have no bandwidth I can take this one although I'd go for not dropping support of Node.js versions
