.NET 8 default AOT build in docker trimming constructor of Amazon.XRay.Recorder.Core.Sampling.Local.SamplingConfiguration

[gabrielfantin]

We built a .NET 8 console app to run as an ECS task using native AOT deployment but it was throwing this exception when ran in ECS. We are using the X-Ray's default instance configuration.

To get it working, we had to exclude the X-Ray from the trimmer

.csproj

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net8.0</TargetFramework>
    <PublishAot>true</PublishAot>
    <DockerDefaultTargetOS>Linux</DockerDefaultTargetOS>
	<TrimMode>partial</TrimMode> <!-- needed to include this -->
  </PropertyGroup>

 <!-- needed to include this -->
    <ItemGroup>
        <TrimmerRootAssembly Include="Amazon.XRay.*" />
    </ItemGroup>

</Project>

I tried to manually configure the sampling strategy in hope that it would get rid of the exception, but that didn't work
