feat(exporters/autoexport): enable support of multiple exporters for …

…OTEL_*_EXPORTER (open-telemetry#4471)

This commit introduces the support of comma-separated value for OTEL_{METRICS,TRACES,LOGS}_EXPORTER.
New functions can now be used to intialize a list of exporters: NewMetricReaders, NewLogExporters, NewSpanExporters.

Old ones (NewMetricReader, NewLogExporter, NewSpanExporter) are now deprecated but still continue to do they initial work to avoid breaking change.
