Just to summarise my understanding of the existing behavior after this PR:

• The global shutdown is now removed for metrics and logs. And shutdown will happen when
  • explicitly invoked from any of the Sdk*Provider's, Or
  • All the references to the providers are dropped.
• From traces, global shutdown will drop the global provider, and invoke shutdown (through drop) if there are no other provider references.
