Depends on #934

This PR stops attaching a tag for application language ('ruby' in our case) to traces that don't represent work performed by the application being traced.

Examples of such traces are database queries and HTTP requests, which are handled by external services.

This change allow us to account for internal application performance in contrast with work performed by external dependencies.
