Instance Identification

In containerized environments, the SDK auto-detects the container hostname. Each container gets a unique identity based on:

1. Hostname (container ID by default)
2. Port (auto-detected from Kestrel)
3. ProcessId

You can also set a custom InstanceId:

options.InstanceId = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("HOSTNAME");
