📜 Description

Drops the current telemetry item when an EventProcessor throws. Subsequent processors and beforeSend* callbacks do not run, and the item is not sent or added to a batch.

Processor exceptions record callback_error outcomes for errors, transactions and spans, replays, feedback, logs and log bytes, and metrics and metric bytes. Intentional processor null results continue to use event_processor.

💡 Motivation and Context

Continuing after a processor failure can send partially processed data, including data that a customer processor intended to scrub. Failing closed keeps callback failures isolated from the host while preventing unsafe delivery.

• refs: Align callback error handling with other SDKs #6081
