when conditions#50561Conversation
* otel(beatprocessor): honor conditions on inner Beat processors The beat processor instantiated each processor by calling its New constructor directly, bypassing the conditional wrapping that processors.Namespace.Register applies on the standard libbeat path. The `when` field was unpacked into the config but silently dropped, so processors ran unconditionally. Wrap each constructor with `processors.NewConditional` before invoking it so `when` configuration is honored, matching the behavior of standalone beats. * add changelog * better wording (cherry picked from commit 7bbe8ee)
