[exporter/signalfx] enabled http2 healthcheck (#29716)

**Description:**
This PR enables the HTTP2 health check to workaround the issue described
here open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector#9022

As to why I chose 10 seconds for `HTTP2ReadIdleTimeout` and ~~5
seconds~~ 10 seconds (see review comment) for `HTTP2PingTimeout`
Those values have been tested in production and they will result, in an
active env (with default http timeout of 10 seconds and default retry
settings), of a single export failure at max before the health check
detects the corrupted tcp connection and closes it.
The only drawback is if the connection was not used for over 10 seconds,
we might end up sending unnecessary ping frames, which should not be an
issue and if it became an issue, then we can tune those settings.

The SFX exporter has multiples http clients:
- Metric client, Trace client and Event client . Those client will have
the http2 health check enabled by default as they share the same default
config
- Correlation client and Dimension client will NOT have the http2 health
check enabled. We can revisit this if needed.

**Testing:** 
- Run OTEL with one of the exporters that uses HTTP/2 client, example
`signalfx` exporter
- For simplicity use a single pipeline/exporter
- In a different shell, run this to watch the tcp state of the
established connection
```
 while (true); do echo date; sudo netstat -anp | grep -E '<endpoin_ip_address(es)>' | sort -k 5; sleep 2; done
 ```  
- From the netstat, take a note of the source port and the source IP address
- replace <> from previous step
`sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -s <source_IP> -p tcp --sport <source_Port> -j DROP`
- Note how the OTEL exporter export starts timing out

Expected Result:
- A new connection should be established, similarly to http/1 and exports should succeed

Actual Result: 
- The exports keep failing for  ~ 15 minutes or for whatever the OS `tcp_retries2` is configured to
- After 15 minutes, a new tcp connection is created and exports start working

**Documentation:** <Describe the documentation added.>
Readme is updated

**Disclaimer:**
Not all HTTP/2 servers support H2 Ping, however, this should not be a concern as our ingest servers do support H2 ping.
But if you are routing you can check if H2 ping is supported using this script golang/go#60818 (comment)
