Celery task producer (celery.apply) span in APM triggers Datadog service inference into creating a new service for the service's own hostname

[patrys]

We've enabled service inference, and our service list is now filled with spurious services named after every pod in every k8s service that publishes tasks. After running for just an hour, we already have 150 of those.

All of the fake services only report a single source of data, celery.apply and visiting traces for celery.apply confirms that celery.hostname seems to be converted into peer.hostname despite this span not actually making a client connection anywhere.

Under each celery.apply span we see the expected sqs.sendmessage span for the actual delivery of the task. That second span has the correct peer tags and is paired with the expected queue service.
