James O. D. Hunt 3a1bbd0271 tracing: Add initial opentracing support
Add initial support for opentracing by using the `jaeger` package.
Since opentracing uses the `context` package, add a `context.Context`
as the first parameter to all the functions that we might want to
trace. Trace "spans" (trace points) are then added by extracting the
trace details from the specified context parameter.

Notes:

- Although the tracer is created in `main()`, the "root span"
  (aka the first trace point) is not added until `beforeSubcommands()`.

  This is by design and is a compromise: by delaying the creation of the
  root span, the spans become much more readable since using the web-based
  JaegerUI, you will see traces like this:

  ```
  kata-runtime: kata-runtime create
  ------------  -------------------
       ^                ^
       |                |
  Trace name        First span name
                    (which clearly shows the CLI command that was run)
  ```

  Creating the span earlier means it is necessary to expand 'n' spans in
  the UI before you get to see the name of the CLI command that was run.
  In adding support, this became very tedious, hence my design decision to
  defer the creation of the root span until after signal handling has been
  setup and after CLI options have been parsed, but still very early in
  the code path.

  - At this stage, the tracing stops at the `virtcontainers` call
  boundary.

- Tracing is "always on" as there doesn't appear to be a way to toggle
  it. However, its resolves to a "nop" unless the tracer can talk to a
  jaeger agent.

Note that this commit required a bit of rework to `beforeSubcommands()`
to reduce the cyclomatic complexity.

Fixes #557.
