OTEP-66 originally had the propagator interface divided into separate Injectors and Extractors. In OpenTelemetry Ruby we found some advantages to this division. For example, you can have asymmetry in the formats that are injected / extracted, and there are situations where order matters. By dividing Propagators into Injectors and Extractors you can still implement the Propagator and CompositePropagator interfaces by composing individual Injectors and Extractors. This PR updates the api-propagators spec to allow for that possibility.

Addresses #479.
