Refactor: lots of boilerplate code in extension implementations #308

Closed pjanotti closed 3 years ago

pjanotti commented 5 years ago

After coding the 3 core extensions (health-check, pprof, zPages) it become clear that the code for them is very similar and can be refactored to reduced code repetition. The one that is slightly different is the health-check that is implemented using a package for Jaeger, having an OTelSvc implementation for health-check (#307) can help having it using the same code pattern.
