Part of #13468

Related to #14096

Along with the metadata, I also moved the instrumentation/jaxws/jaxws-2.0-axis2-1.6-testing module intoinstrumentation/jaxws/jaxws-2.0-axis2-1.6/testing because it didn't seem necessary for them to be separate modules (there's only 1 module using the -testing module , and there were no tests in the jaxws-2.0-axis2-1.6 module.)

does it really do context propagation?

Context propagation usually means passing the context through header between applications or inter thread context propagation where context is somehow passed from one thread to another. Perhaps storing the context and passing it to a callback could also be considered context propagation. The linked code just creates a span and activates the context that contains that span. I don't think that qualifies as context propagation. I think we need to clarify what CONTEXT_PROPAGATION means.

thanks, this was a misunderstanding on my part. I've updated the documentation to better match the more narrow definition and removed that label from these instrumentations.

thinking more about this, i wonder if the more useful bit would be further distinguishing this in the sense of context propagation injectors (clients, producers) or extractors (servers, consumers) ?

I'm not sure about the (INTERNAL). Should we expect our users to understand the different span kinds, or care about them? When we use server span then it sort of makes sense even if you don't know that we have spans of different kinds.
