Description

According to the document of OpenTelemetry, for all the modules which could be depended by downstream users, we should only depend on opentelemetry-api.

But the open telemetry propagator must be initialized programmatically, so we need to have a module to implement the code and introduce dependency on opentelemetry-sdk, and we need to call it before doing anything when starting master, regionserver, and so on.
