Add EventBroadcaster metrics for observability and debugging

- Add BroadcasterMetrics interface for reading metrics per namespace
- Add MetricsCollector interface and DefaultMetricsCollector implementation
- Track events_published and events_received counters per namespace
- Track active_subscriptions gauge per namespace
- Track publish_errors, subscribe_errors, and dropped_events counters
- Add MetricsProvider interface for EventBroadcaster implementations
- Integrate metrics tracking into EventBus and NATSEventBus
- Add optional Prometheus integration via PrometheusMetricsAdapter
- Add comprehensive unit tests for metrics functionality

Closes #22
