fix: Cleanup zipkin build error

 ## vNext
 
+- **Breaking** The `ZipkinExporterBuilder::build()` method now returns a
+  `Result<ZipkinExporter, ExporterBuildError>`. The `ExporterBuildError` enum
+  lists possible failures specific to the Zipkin exporter and was renamed from
+  `opentelemetry_zipkin::Error`. Previously, this method returned a `TraceError`
+  from the `opentelemetry_sdk` crate, which was unrelated to Zipkin builder
+  failures.
