Adrian Cole 808572d78e Deprecates all span transports except spring-cloud-sleuth-zipkin2 (#758)
This deprecates span transports in favor of `spring-cloud-sleuth-zipkin2`
which:
* Supports RabbitMQ and Kafka automatically when adding spring-rabbit or spring-kafka deps
* Supports any io.zipkin.reporter2:zipkin-reporter sender, including Amazon X-Ray
* Defaults to zipkin v2 format, but can be configured to use zipkin v1 format as needed

This lowers the amount of maintenance on the project, as discussed in various issues

See #727
See #711

== Spring Cloud Sleuth Samples
=== Running the samples
There are a few samples with slightly different features. You can run all of them from an IDE via the main method, or on the command line with `mvn spring-boot:run`. They all log trace and span data on the console by default. Here's a list:
* `spring-cloud-sleuth-sample`: vanilla (no zipkin) web app that calls back to itself on various endpoints ("/", "/call", "/async")
* `spring-cloud-sleuth-sample-zipkin2`: same as vanilla sample but with zipkin (set `sample.zipkin.enabled=true` if you have a collector running)
* `spring-cloud-sleuth-sample-messaging`: a Spring Integration application with two HTTP endpoints ("/" and "/xform")
* `spring-cloud-sleuth-sample-ribbon`: two endpoints ("/" and "/call") that make calls to the "zipkin" sample via Ribbon. Also has `@EnableZUulProxy" so if the other samples are running they are proxied at "/messaging", "/zipkin", "/vanilla" (see "/routes" for a list).
The Ribbon sample makes an interesting demo or playground for learning about zipkin. In the screenshot below you can see a trace with 3 spans - it starts in the "testSleuthRibbon" app and crosses to "testSleuthMessaging" for the next 2 spans.
=== Running samples with Zipkin
1. Optionally run the https://github.com/openzipkin/zipkin[Zipkin] Server, e.g. via docker compose (there's a `docker-compose.yml` in https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-sleuth-samples/spring-cloud-sleuth-sample-zipkin2[Spring Cloud Sleuth], or in https://github.com/openzipkin/docker-zipkin[Docker Zipkin]
7. Run the zipkin sample application (set `sample.zipkin.enabled=false` if you have no Zipkin running). If you are using a VM to run docker you might need to tunnel port 9411 to localhost, or change the `spring.zipkin.baseUrl`.
8. Hit `http://localhost:3380`, `http://localhost:3380/call`, `http://localhost:3380/async` for some interesting sample traces (the app callas back to itself).
9. Go to `http://localhost:9411` for Zipkin's UI (if you are using boot2docker the host will be different)
NOTE: You can see the zipkin spans without the UI (in logs) if you run the sample with `sample.zipkin.enabled=false`.

> The fact that the first trace in says "testSleuthMessaging" seems to be a bug in the UI (it has some annotations from that service, but it originates in the "testSleuthRibbon" service).
