/*
This file contains the forwarding implementation of the trace.Provider used as
the default global instance. Prior to initialization of an SDK, Tracers
returned by the global Provider will provide no-op functionality. This means
that all Span created prior to initialization are no-op Spans.

Once an SDK has been initialized, all provided no-op Tracers are swapped for
Tracers provided by the SDK defined Provider. However, any Span started prior
to this initialization does not change its behavior. Meaning, the Span remains
a no-op Span.

The implementation to track and swap Tracers locks all new Tracer creation
until the swap is complete. This assumes that this operation is not
performance-critical. If that assumption is incorrect, be sure to configure an
SDK prior to any Tracer creation.
