This commit adds support for OpenCensus tracing
and metrics collection. This required support for
context.Context propogation throughout the cluster
codebase, and in particular, the ipfscluster component
interfaces.
The tracing propogates across RPC and HTTP boundaries.
The current default tracing backend is Jaeger.
The metrics currently exports the metrics exposed by
the opencensus http plugin as well as the pprof metrics
to a prometheus endpoint for scraping.
The current default metrics backend is Prometheus.
Metrics are currently exposed by default due to low
overhead, can be turned off if desired, whereas tracing
is off by default as it has a much higher performance
overhead, though the extent of the performance hit can be
adjusted with smaller sampling rates.

Issue #572 exposes metrics but they carry the peer ID in binary.
This was ok with our internal codecs but it doesn't seem to work
very well with json, and makes the output format unusable.
This makes the Metric.Peer field a string.
Additinoally, fixes calling the command without arguments and displaying
the date in the right format.
