Fix Jaeger exporter to correctly translate span.kind attribute

According to opentracing semantic conventions, span.kind attribute
should be one of the following four values: "server", "client",
"producer", "consumer". The spec does not mention the casing of the
strings but all examples show them in lower case. Moreoever, the
OpenTelemetry collector recognizes these values only when they are
lower case. Today if opentelemetry-python exports a span using the
jaeger exporter to the OpenTelemetry collector, it loses the span.kind
information. Using the debug logger exporter in the collector prints the
following to the screen:

    Span #0
        Trace ID       : 31789e02d79452eaedb72769bed5fac7
        Parent ID      : a6398bc507d8a982
        ID             : 4a00eaa815e69785
        Name           : span
        Kind           : SPAN_KIND_UNSPECIFIED

        Status code    : STATUS_CODE_CANCELLED
        Status message :

After the patch, span kind is correctly understood and represented by
the collector:
