Add a public API for broadcasting logs:
- ## Context

  While working on https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/44695, I
  realised that Broadcasting was still a private API, although it’s
  commonly used. Rafael mentioned that making it public would require
  some refactor because of the original implementation which was hard
  to understand and maintain.

  ### Changing how broadcasting works:

  Broadcasting in a nutshell worked by “transforming” an existing
  logger into a broadcasted one.
  The logger would then be responsible to log and format its own
  messages as well as passing the message along to other logger it
  broadcasts to.

  The problem with this approach was the following:

  - Heavy use of metaprogramming.
  - Accessing the loggers in the broadcast wasn’t possible.
    Removing a logger from the broadcast either.
  - More importantly, modifying the main logger (the one that broadcasts
    logs to the others) wasn’t possible and the main source of
    misunderstanding.

    ```ruby
      logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
      stderr_logger = Logger.new(STDER))
      logger.extend(AS::Logger.broadcast(stderr_logger))

      logger.level = DEBUG # This modifies the level on all other loggers
      logger.formatter = … # Modified the formatter on all other loggers
    ```

  To keep the contract unchanged on what Rails.logger returns, the new
  BroadcastLogger class implement duck typing with all methods
  that has the vanilla Ruby Logger class.

  It's a simple and boring PORO that keeps an array of all the loggers
  that are part of the broadcast and iterate over whenever a log is
  sent.
  Now, users can access all loggers inside the broadcast and modify
  them on the fly. They can also remove any logger from the broadcast
  at any time.

  ```ruby
  # Before

  stdout_logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
  stderr_logger = Logger.new(STDER)
  file_logger = Logger.new(“development.log”)
  stdout_logger.extend(AS::Logger.broadcast(stderr_logger))
  stdout_logger.extend(AS::Logger.broadcast(file_logger))

  # After

  broadcast = BroadcastLogger.new(stdout_logger, stderr_logger, file_logger)
  ```

  I also think that now, it should be more clear for users that the
  broadcast sole job is to pass everything to the whole loggers in
  the broadcast. So there should be no surprise that all loggers in
  the broadcast get their level modified when they call
  `broadcast.level = DEBUG` .

  It’s also easier to wrap your head around more complex setup such
  as broadcasting logs to another broadcast:
  `broadcast.broadcast_to(stdout_logger, other_broadcast)`
