[processor/tailsampling] fix InvertNotSampled decision precedence w…
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
…hen inside and sub policy (#33671)

**Description:**

This fixes the handling of AND policies that contain a sub-policy with
invert_match=true. Previously if the decision from a policy evaluation
was `NotSampled` or `InvertNotSampled` it would return a `NotSampled`
decision regardless, effectively downgrading the result.

This was breaking the documented behaviour that inverted decisions
should take precedence over all others.

This is related to the changes made in
#9768 that introduced
support for using invert_match within and sub policies.

**Link to tracking Issue:**
#33656

**Testing:**

I tested manually that this fixes the issue described in
#33656
and also updated the tests. If you have any suggestions for more tests
we could add let me know.
