[Obsolete("Inject a Google.Cloud.Diagnostics.Common.ITraceContext instead.")]public interface IExternalTraceProvider
Provides external trace information to include in a log entry
if there's no Google Trace available.
Implement this interface when traces are being generated by your environment
and sent to Google Cloud Tracing not via the Google.Cloud.Diagnostics library.
