Allows doing something like this:
```caddyfile
watch "/app/{config,src}/*.{php,js}"
```
In the long term it would be nice to have pattern matching in the
watcher repo itself
As discussed in https://github.com/php/frankenphp/discussions/1961,
there is no real way to pass a severity/level to any log handler offered
by PHP that would make it to the FrankenPHP layer. This new function
allows applications embedding FrankenPHP to integrate PHP logging into
the application itself, thus offering a more streamlined experience.

This patch brings hot reloading capabilities to PHP apps: in
development, the browser will automatically refresh the page when any
source file changes!
It's similar to HMR in JavaScript.
It is built on top of [the watcher
mechanism](https://frankenphp.dev/docs/config/#watching-for-file-changes)
and of the [Mercure](https://frankenphp.dev/docs/mercure/) integration.
Each time a watched file is modified, a Mercure update is sent, giving
the ability to the client to reload the page, or part of the page
(assets, images...).
Here is an example implementation:
```caddyfile
root ./public
mercure {
subscriber_jwt {env.MERCURE_SUBSCRIBER_JWT_KEY}
anonymous
}
php_server {
hot_reload
}
```
```php
<?php
header('Content-Type: text/html');
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<script>
const es = new EventSource('<?=$_SERVER['FRANKENPHP_HOT_RELOAD']?>');
es.onmessage = () => location.reload();
</script>
</head>
<body>
Hello
```
I plan to create a helper JS library to handle more advanced cases
(reloading CSS, JS, etc), similar to [HotWire
Spark](https://github.com/hotwired/spark). Be sure to attend my
SymfonyCon to learn more!
There is still room for improvement:
- Provide an option to only trigger the update without reloading the
worker for some files (ex, images, JS, CSS...)
- Support classic mode (currently, only the worker mode is supported)
- Don't reload all workers when only the files used by one change
However, this PR is working as-is and can be merged as a first step.
This patch heavily refactors the watcher module. Maybe it will be
possible to extract it as a standalone library at some point (would be
useful to add a similar feature but not tight to PHP as a Caddy module).

This PR:
- moves state.go to its own module
- moves the phpheaders test the phpheaders module
- simplifies backoff.go
- makes the backoff error instead of panic (so it can be tested)
- removes some unused C structs
