What's missing?

OpenAI renamed the system role to developer: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/text-generation#messages-and-roles

Python openai instrumentation is sending whatever it gets in the role as event name (https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python-contrib/blob/main/instrumentation-genai/opentelemetry-instrumentation-openai-v2/src/opentelemetry/instrumentation/openai_v2/utils.py#L107) so it's out of spec in case it gets the developer role. Before touching the code would be nice to discuss how we want to handle this.
