We introduce a new package, apmconfig, which
defines a Watcher interface that can be used
for watching for central config changes.
When creating a new Tracer, it will use its
Transport for watching config if it implements
apmconfig.Watcher. The default HTTP transport
implements that interface.
The default behaviour of watching config can
be disabled by setting the new environment
variable ELASTIC_APM_CENTRAL_CONFIG to "false".
For now only the sampler can be updated via
central config. While there is central sampling
config defined, any locally defined Sampler will
be disregarded, whether it be specified via
environment variable or via SetSampler.
Closes #512
