Document how to deal with different names for context propagation across services #151

@fabianfett

Description

@fabianfett

The AWS SQS service propagates context between sender and consumer over SQSMessageAttributes. The identifier for the message attribute that is used for context propagation "AWSTraceHeader" is different than the one normally used for HTTP based propagation: "X-Amzn-Trace-Id".

In such a case library authors will need to write their own Extractor and Injector that are specialized towards a tracing solution (in this case XRay) and therefore can ignore the name passed by the tracing lib.
