fix: make trace_include_sensitive_data secure by default

[OiPunk]

Summary

This PR makes tracing safer by default by switching the default of RunConfig.trace_include_sensitive_data from True to False when OPENAI_AGENTS_TRACE_INCLUDE_SENSITIVE_DATA is not set.

This aligns runtime behavior with secure-by-default expectations and documentation.

Fixes #2393

Changes

• Change _default_trace_include_sensitive_data() env fallback from "true" to "false" in src/agents/run_config.py
• Update default-behavior test in tests/test_run_config.py
• Update docs in docs/tracing.md to state the default is False

Testing

• uv run ruff format --check
• uv run ruff check
• uv run mypy . --exclude site
• uv run pytest tests/test_run_config.py tests/test_agent_runner.py -k trace_include_sensitive_data -q
• uv run coverage run -m pytest tests/test_run_config.py tests/test_agent_runner.py -k trace_include_sensitive_data -q
• uv run coverage report -m src/agents/run_config.py

Thanks for sending this patch! However, since this is a breaking change, we don't plant to make the change in the short term.

Follow-up pushed to fix current CI failures on this PR.

Root cause:

• tests/mcp/test_mcp_tracing.py expected legacy function span fields (input/output) for MCP/non-MCP calls.
• Current runtime behavior omits those fields in this path, so snapshots drifted and all Python-version test jobs failed.

Fix:

• Refreshed the inline snapshot in tests/mcp/test_mcp_tracing.py to match current normalized span output.

Commit:

• 35c274f

Local verification:

• ruff check on touched + related files: pass
• mypy . --exclude site: pass
• pytest tests/test_run_config.py tests/test_agent_runner.py tests/test_tracing_errors.py tests/test_tracing_errors_streamed.py tests/mcp/test_mcp_tracing.py -q: 121 passed
