Another substantial Go kit release, with a handful of bugfixes and some major enhancements.

We now use stdlib package context wherever possible — basically, everywhere except package transport/grpc, as gRPC still imports golang.org/x/net/context and we don't have a choice but to comply. Still, there are ways to bridge the gap: see examples/addsvc for details. This means Go kit now requires Go 1.7 or above.

The other major changes in this release involve package log. We've removed NewContext and the Context type, preferring With and WithPrefix helper functions. Also, we've promoted the experiemental level package to package level, and deprecated the old levels package to deprecated_levels. I'm really happy with this: it's a slightly esoteric, but really clean and literate way to compose levels with Go kit's package log. Give it a shot!

For the full changelog, see below. My enormous gratitude goes to Chris Hines @ChrisHines for his expert work on package log, and to Bas van Beek @basvanbeek for his expert work on packages tracing and transport/grpc. And huge thanks to the 22 individual contributors who've contributed to this release! 🏌️‍♀️
