#### Description
<!-- Describe your changes in detail -->
This pull request is intended to introduce a new, straightforward module that 
can efficiently stream output to files while also handling changes based on a 
specific interval. The module contains only one function that streams a chunk 
of text to the current output file handle associated with the given file index.

It's not 100% completed but the basic features are there. Any reviews and 
of course naming of the module, much appreciated.

---

How the module works:

- Set parameter `base_folder` to define where you want your logs to be saved.
- Set `base_filename` (up to 10) to define the names of your files. Each is 
associated with an index according to the order you defined it. First 
`base_filename`'s index is 0, second's index is 1 and so on. This is 
appended with a new timestamp when `interval_seconds` are passed.
- Set `interval_seconds` to define how much time before the file is closed and 
a new one is opened. Right now shared for all files.
- Set `extension` to define what should be the extension of files.  Right now 
shared for all files. 

Use the provided function `file_out` to write any text (including pvs) to a 
specific file you want.

---
**Example:** 

Define parameters such as:
```
# kamailio.cfg
...
loadmodule "file_out.so"
modparam("file_out", "base_folder", 
"/tmp/kamailio/file_out/")
modparam("file_out", "base_filename", 
"accounting")
modparam("file_out", "base_filename", 
"missed_calls")
modparam("file_out","interval_seconds", 600)
modparam("file_out","extension", ".txt")
...

request_route {
...
        file_out("0", "Writing  to accounting.txt file $rm from 
$fu (IP:$si:$sp)");
        file_out("1", "Writing  to missed_calls.txt file $rm 
from $fu (IP:$si:$sp)");
...
}
```
