Breaking changes

• We have some changes that are technically breaking changes. We made some helper classes internal that were never meant to be public. These are: Elastic.Apm.Helpers.AgentTimeInstant, Elastic.Apm.Helpers.ContractExtensions, Elastic.Apm.Helpers.ObjectExtensions, Elastic.Apm.Helpers.ToStringBuilder. None of these classes were documented or mentioned as part of the Public Agent API. We expect no usage of these classes outside the agent.
