Aman GuptaandDamien Mathieu fe66608e75 [chore] exporters/zipkin: document OTEL_EXPORTER_ZIPKIN_ENDPOINT (#9009)
Fixes #9007
Part of #2046

## Changes

- `exporters/zipkin/doc.go`: document `OTEL_EXPORTER_ZIPKIN_ENDPOINT`
using the same format as the OTLP exporter package docs. The text covers
its default, that the value must contain a scheme and host, and that it
is only used when `New` is called with an empty `collectorURL`. This
environment variable was not mentioned anywhere in the public
documentation before.

This is documentation only, so there is no CHANGELOG entry.

## Verification

- Checked against `exporters/zipkin/env.go` and `zipkin.go`, and ran a
small program against this branch. It confirmed that `New("")` sends
spans to the URL from the environment variable, that an explicit
`collectorURL` takes precedence over it, and that a value without a
scheme makes `New` return an error.
- `make precommit` passes, and `git status` is clean afterwards.
