Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently only kafka support is provided for fanning out the wal stream. Adding support for other libraries/tooling would enable implementing more complex pgstream setups in different environments.

Describe the solution you'd like
Pub/Sub writer/reader support similar to what's done for Kafka. Existing official pub/sub library for go: https://pkg.go.dev/cloud.google.com/go/pubsub

Describe alternatives you've considered
Kafka is the only alternative currently supported.

Additional context
This is a GCP specific integration, other infrastructure providers can be tracked in separate issues.

Research direction

Start by reading the existing Kafka writer and reader support and the official Go Pub/Sub library linked in the issue. Define the equivalent Pub/Sub writer and reader integration for the WAL stream, including how it fits GCP-specific setups; done means Pub/Sub support works comparably to Kafka.
