Right now we have the HttpTextFormat interface as well as the B3Format, HttpTraceContextFormat, etc classes. The specification is using the term Propagator for this. We should decide what we want to call this interface and its various derived classes before we reach beta stability.

In open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification#480, they seemed to think it is better to have naming aligned. Java is apparently also renaming some things to be closer to spec wording.
