Add OpenCensus migration plan #2730

Part of #1175

Supersedes open-telemetry/oteps#210.

Changes

While OpenTelemetry has a specification for an
OpenCensus trace bridge,
it lacks a broader context on how such bridges should be used to perform a migration from
OpenCensus to OpenTelemetry. Additionally, OpenTelemetry should provide guidance to libraries
currently using OpenCensus on how to migrate instrumentation to OpenTelemetry.

Open questions

  • Should we recommend one of the library migration strategies (in-place or config-based)?
  • Should we require bridges to implement semantic convention mapping (MUST instead of SHOULD)?
  • Is it reasonable to expect users to migrate (by installing a bridge) before libraries migrate?
