Fixed sarama instrumentation and introduced ContextExt interface

Sarama instrumentation was identifying spans with a non-unique and
unelibale key which caused a number of issues with span reporting as
some spans were not being finished. This commit replaces the said key
with the span ID.

This span ID is extracted from the kafka message headers and used to
identify any pending spans. This requires Kafka (not sarama) version
0.11.0 or newer which was released in 2017.

To enable using span IDs in sarama instrumentation, this commit also
extends the span interface to add a ContextExt() method. This allows our
implementation of Spans to access span IDs while still remaining
compatible with OpenTracing Span.

Alternatively, we could have added a utility method like
`trace.SpanID(ctx)` but we'd have to account for failure and then
insrumentation would have to conditionally create and manage spans.
