Description

Currently OpenTracing tracers and the zipkin tracer derives the span.kind (or cs/cr/ss/sr annotations) from the tracing config "operation_name" - however opencensus tracer doesn't have this tag set.

The proxy needs to explicitly set this tag when creating the span. This is similiar to #3435 which was resolved in 42a9cae38dd3bf5264fb83f64e310b0d76ea4257 (but this time just for opencensus)
