Before	After
tp, shutdown, err := exporter.InstallNewPipeline( exporterOpts, sdkOpts..., ) // handle error defer shutdown()	exporter, err := exporter.New(exporterOpts) // handle error tp := sdktrace.NewTracerProvider( sdktrace.WithBatcher(exporter), sdkOpts..., ) defer tp.Shutdown(context.Background()) otel.SetTracerProvider(tp)
tp, shutdown, err := exporter.NewExportPipeline( exporterOpts, sdkOpts..., ) // handle error defer shutdown()	exporter, err := exporter.New(exporterOpts) // handle error tp := sdktrace.NewTracerProvider( sdktrace.WithBatcher(exporter), sdkOpts..., ) defer tp.Shutdown(context.Background())

• Remove ExportCustomSpans and associated interface which were introduced in -RC1 (#187).
• Un-export string constants from OTel semantic conventions (#192).
• Remove DisplayNameFormatter and DefaultTraceAttributes from trace exporter options (#188, #191)
