Adrian Cole b8b1ff05ac Moves to zipkin 0.21
This moves to changes made in preparation of zipkin 1.0.

Here are the notables:

* Zipkin has autoconfiguration modules, where maven artifacts have the prefix 'zipkin-autoconfigure-X'
* Zipkin's ui now shares a version with everything else

* Zipkin now namespaces packages and configuration. ex zipkin.storage.X as opposed to zipkin.X
* All autoconfiguration classes are prefixed `Zipkin` to be easier to find

* Zipkin binds components like StorageComponent, as opposed to individual classes like SpanStore.
* Health checks are under the scope "zipkin" and broken down by component

* UI responsiveness is better by conditionally caching names queries for 5 minutes
* New `Collector` class, which makes logging and metrics patterns the same regardless of transport

# Running a Zipkin Server
There are 3 parts to Zipkin:
- the instrumented client apps
- the backend database (defaults to in-memory db)
- the Zipkin server
## Zipkin Services
Run the Zipkin (remember to have RabbitMQ running) by
either running Spring Boot Maven plugin:
```
./mvnw spring-boot:run --projects spring-cloud-sleuth-samples/spring-cloud-sleuth-sample-zipkin-stream
```
or running the packaged app from the root:
```
./mvnw package --projects spring-cloud-sleuth-samples/spring-cloud-sleuth-sample-zipkin-stream
java -jar spring-cloud-sleuth-samples/spring-cloud-sleuth-sample-zipkin-stream/target/spring-cloud-sleuth-sample-zipkin-stream-1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT-exec.jar
```
and test it
```
$ curl localhost:9411/api/v1/services
["zipkin-server"]
```
## Instrumenting Apps
Depend on [Spring Cloud Sleuth Stream](https://github.com/spring-cloud-spring-cloud-sleuth) and the
rabbit binder (`spring-cloud-starter-stream-rabbit`).
Once the apps start publishing spans they will appear in the span store as well.
## Running in an IDE
You can run this app in an IDE and still use docker-compose to create the middleware:
```
$ docker-compose up rabbitmq
```
