Add Logging interface to Autometrics (#80)

+#### Logging
+
+Monitoring/Observability must not crash the application.
+
+So when Autometrics encounters
+errors, instead of bubbling it up until the program stops, it will log the error and absorb it.
+To leave choice in the logging implementation (depending on your application dependencies),
+Autometrics exposes a `Logger` interface you can implement and then inject in the `Init` call
+to have the logging you want.
+
+The `Logger` interface is a subset of `slog.Logger` methods, so that most loggers can be used.
+Autometrics also provides 2 simple loggers out of the box:
+- `NoOpLogger`, which is the default logger and does nothing,
+- `PrintLogger` which uses `fmt.Print` to write logging messages on stdout.
+
+To use the `PrintLogger` instead of the `NoOpLogger` for examble, you just have to change
+the `Init` call:
+
+``` patch
+	shutdown, err := autometrics.Init(
+		nil,
+		autometrics.DefBuckets,
+		autometrics.BuildInfo{ Version: "2.1.37", Commit: "anySHA", Branch: "", Service: "myApp" },
+		nil,
+-		nil,
++   autometrics.PrintLogger{},
+	)
+```
