Add 2 new routing mechanisms for records that use Kafka topic name for routing and update configuration for how to route records.
The changes move the routing logic to a separate class with different implementations that can be selected via the configuration. It preserves backwards compatibility of current behavior, while adding 2 new ways to route records to tables based on the Kafka topic and also allows custom implementations of how records are routed.
The two new routing mechanisms allow the connector to consume from multiple topics, eliminating the need to create separate connectors for each topic to consume from.
Closes #11163
