This branch introduces a new AnnotateError middleware in linkerd-stack, for adding context to errors returned by a wrapped Service.

The annotate_error module contains a new trait, ErrorContext, which is implemented by types that provide context to Errors by wrapping them with a new Error type, and the AnnotateError middleware itself. The middleware consists of a NewService which extracts a Param implementing ErrorContext and produces a Service, which wraps any errors returned by the inner Service using that ErrorContext.

Additionally, NewAnnotateError may be constructed with an ExtractParam implementation that configures how an ErrorContext implementation is produced from a target type, when the Params themselves do not implement ErrorContext. Finally, a pre-made implementation of ErrorContext, called FromTarget, that produces new errors when the error type implements From<(&T, Error)> is provided. In this case, the error type can implement From with the appropriate target type, and the annotate_error::layer_from_target constructor can be used, without requiring an ExtractParam implementation to be written for each stack.

This change was extracted from PR #2154.

This branch introduces a new `AnnotateError` middleware in
`linkerd-stack`, for adding context to errors returned by a wrapped
`Service`.

The `annotate_error` module contains a new trait, `ErrorContext`, which
is implemented by types that provide context to `Error`s by wrapping
them with a new `Error` type, and the `AnnotateError` middleware itself.
The middleware consists of a `NewService` which extracts a `Param`
implementing `ErrorContext` and produces a `Service`, which wraps any
errors returned by the inner `Service` using that `ErrorContext`.

Additionally, `NewAnnotateError` may be constructed with an
`ExtractParam` implementation that configures how an `ErrorContext`
implementation is produced from a target type, when the `Param`s
themselves do not implement `ErrorContext`. Finally, a pre-made
implementation of `ErrorContext`, called `FromTarget`, that produces new
errors when the error type implements `From<(&T, Error)>` is provided.
In this case, the error type can implement `From` with the appropriate
target type, and the `annotate_error::layer_from_target` constructor can
be used, without requiring an `ExtractParam` implementation to be
written for each stack.

In order to improve the proxy's debuggability, it's desirable that the
errors logged by the proxy and/or returned to HTTP clients include
relevant information about where in the proxy that error occurred.
Currently, buffer layers are constructed with a string "name" parameter
that describes which part of the stack is behind that buffer, so that
the fail-fast errors returned by those buffers can contain the stack
layer's name. While this provides some useful context, it isn't a
complete solution, as this context is only added to fail-fast errors,
and not other errors such as I/O errors, Additionally, these names only
indicate where in the stack the error occurred, and don't provide
metadata describing *which instance* of that stack layer produced the
error --- e.g., there is no context describing the client address,
logical address, concrete address, or endpoint (as appropriate) that
produced the error.

Instead, we should annotate *all* errors with the following information:

- The name of the stack layer where the error occurred
- Target metadata including the logical, concrete, and endpoint
  addresses (as appropriate)

This branch uses the `AnnotateError` middleware added in PR #2158 to add
layers to the proxy which annotate errors with metadata extracted from targets.
Furthermore, this branch removes the existing name parameter from buffer
layers, and replaces them with the `AnnotateError` middleware, which is
used to add target metadata *and* a string name describing the stack
layer to all errors. Additionally, the various `HttpRescue`
implementations have been changed slightly, so that when a specific
cause is found for an error, the entire error chain is still formatted
in the HTTP response `l5d-error` header, rather than _just_ the cause.
This ensures that all context added to an error is included in the
formatted message, rather than just the root cause (which lacks target
metadata).

This release includes many internal changes to prepare for the new
client policy API. Stack metric label values have changed to reflect the
new shape of the outbound proxy.
