Unblocks #13627
The propagator used for messages is a no-op if the incoming span is invalid:
https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-cpp/blob/4eb99f9e05f45c0ea1461858417e7e52135874c5/api/include/opentelemetry/trace/propagation/http_trace_context.h#L45-L48
In this case, our message receiver does not add a new context to the stack:
https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-cpp/blob/4eb99f9e05f45c0ea1461858417e7e52135874c5/api/include/opentelemetry/trace/propagation/http_trace_context.h#L63
The latest update to opentelemetry-cpp copies trace flags from the current context:
https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-cpp/blob/423ecacdf62196731d888621e0dfa2e8cc023b4a/sdk/src/trace/tracer.cc#L64
So we should check that the contexts are not equal.
