feat: broadcast and expect multiple acks

Syntax:

```js
io.timeout(1000).emit("some-event", (err, responses) => {
  // ...
});
```

The adapter exposes two additional methods:

- `broadcastWithAck(packets, opts, clientCountCallback, ack)`

Similar to `broadcast(packets, opts)`, but:

* `clientCountCallback()` is called with the number of clients that
  received the packet (can be called several times in a cluster)
* `ack()` is called for each client response

- `serverCount()`

It returns the number of Socket.IO servers in the cluster (1 for the
in-memory adapter).

Those two methods will be implemented in the other adapters (Redis,
Postgres, MongoDB, ...).
