Add support for pymemcache

[polamayster]

Would you please consider adding support for https://github.com/pinterest/pymemcache as a quite popular client library for AWS ElastiCache for Memcached service.

Hey,

is the request here to utilize pymemcache in our SDK or add auto-instrumentation support for its internal operations? I think if we can understand the additional utility X-Ray can provide, it would give us a good starting point.

Sorry for a fuzzy question, I meant auto-instrumentation, so calls to ElastiCache via pymemcache become visible in X-Ray traces.

We will leave this as an open feature request, as we have an internal discussion around how we can in general provide support for services like ElastiCache. Please stay tuned for any updates.

Adding some support for common redis clients would be brilliant in addition to pymemcache.
