Backport c2e0ab9 from #15278 to 4.0.
Description
Enables the native writer by default. The native writer can still be disabled through _DD_TRACE_WRITER_NATIVE.
Testing
All tests are run with the native writer. The native writer have also been enabled on some services internally for dogfooding purposes.
Risks
This changes the logic behind trace export and client-side stats computation (for customers who enabled it). We expect no change in behavior for trace exporting. Client-side stats behavior may show some differences as the current python implementation is not fully compliant with the client-side stats spec.
