What happened?

We should mention that EDOT SDKs in general should not be used at the same time with other APM Agents (by Elastic or other vendors).

In the Elastic APM Java Agent we have a disclaimer at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/trouble-shooting.html#trouble-shooting-additional-agent, but it would be interesting to have the same on EDOT SDKs.

Maybe mention it once in the general EDOT SDK pages and include the same on each EDOT SDK in the "setup" page.
