Explore OpenTelemetry Collector

[adriangonz]

The OpenTelemetry project now has a Collector component, which can be seen as fluentd for traces. The collector offers a single (vendor agnostic) centralised point to gather traces from different components, that can then be pushed to a 3rd party vendor backend (e.g. Jaeger, Datadog, etc).

It would be good to explore whether this could be used as the default in Seldon Core, so that we decouple vendor-specific code from Seldon components, and thus enable support for any tracing backend.

More details can be found in their repo: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector
