feat(events,github): add support for EventsService, events at new backend
Adds optional support for the EventsService passed as argument to the factory method. For the new backend, the EventsService is used as dependency and passed on. Events support will be active always. The support for the deprecated EventBroker and its interfaces was kept for easier migration and will be removed as a separate follow-up change that could go into a following release.

## Installation with Events Support
|
||||
|
||||
_For the legacy backend system, please read the sub-section below._
|
||||
|
||||
The catalog module for GitHub comes with events support enabled.
|
||||
This will make it subscribe to its relevant topics (`github.push`)
|
||||
and expects these events to be published via the `EventsService`.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, you should install the
|
||||
[event router by `events-backend-module-github`](https://github.com/backstage/backstage/tree/master/plugins/events-backend-module-github/README.md)
|
||||
which will route received events from the generic topic `github` to more specific ones
|
||||
based on the event type (e.g., `github.push`).
|
||||
|
||||
In order to receive Webhook events by GitHub, you have to decide how you want them
|
||||
to be ingested into Backstage and published to its `EventsService`.
|
||||
You can decide between the following options (extensible):
|
||||
|
||||
- [via HTTP endpoint](https://github.com/backstage/backstage/tree/master/plugins/events-backend/README.md)
|
||||
- [via an AWS SQS queue](https://github.com/backstage/backstage/tree/master/plugins/events-backend-module-aws-sqs/README.md)
|
||||
|
||||
### Legacy Backend System
