Rename *Provider names (#1190)

* Rename *Provider names

There is overlap in naming with MeterProviders and TracerProviders. This
is means the specification is not implemented and these types can not
exist in the same package (#1179). This makes each type and related
functions and types explicit.

* Add changes to CHANGELOG
