context: remove definition of Context
Back in the before time, the best practices surrounding usage of Context
weren't quite worked out. We defined our own type to make usage easier.
As this packaged was used elsewhere, it make it more and more
challenging to integrate with the forked `Context` type. Now that it is
available in the standard library, we can just use that one directly.

To make usage more consistent, we now use `dcontext` when referring to
the distribution context package.

// WithTrace allocates a traced timing span in a new context. This allows a
// caller to track the time between calling WithTrace and the returned done
// function. When the done function is called, a log message is emitted with a
// "trace.duration" field, corresponding to the elapsed time and a
// "trace.func" field, corresponding to the function that called WithTrace.
//
// The logging keys "trace.id" and "trace.parent.id" are provided to implement
// dapper-like tracing. This function should be complemented with a WithSpan
// method that could be used for tracing distributed RPC calls.
//
// The main benefit of this function is to post-process log messages or
// intercept them in a hook to provide timing data. Trace ids and parent ids
// can also be linked to provide call tracing, if so required.
//
// Here is an example of the usage:
//
// func timedOperation(ctx Context) {
// ctx, done := WithTrace(ctx)
// defer done("this will be the log message")
// // ... function body ...
// }
//
// If the function ran for roughly 1s, such a usage would emit a log message
// as follows:
//
// INFO[0001] this will be the log message trace.duration=1.004575763s trace.func=github.com/docker/distribution/context.traceOperation trace.id=<id> ...
//
// Notice that the function name is automatically resolved, along with the
// package and a trace id is emitted that can be linked with parent ids.
