Enable Envoy XRay tracing with Service Connect

Question

Is it possible to enable Envoy XRay tracing on ECS services integrated with Service Connect? 
I understand that with AppMesh, it's typically enabled via the `ENABLE_ENVOY_XRAY_TRACING` environment variable as part of the envoy container definition, but since the ecs-service-connect-agent container is attached under the hood I wasn't sure how to pass that variable on.

Configuration of Environment variables such as `ENABLE_ENVOY_XRAY_TRACING` is not possible for `ecs-service-connect-agent container` when using `ECS Service Connect`, they are only configurable in `AppMesh`. This use case doesn't seem to be supported yet in ECS Service Connect.

You could open an issue in the GitHub repo to request configuration support of these Environment variables.
