Users of `Pp.pp msg` should now use the + proper `Feedback.msg_*` function.

Functions moved from Pp to Feedback are: + +```` ocaml +val set_logger : logger -> unit +val std_logger : logger +val emacs_logger : logger +val feedback_logger : logger +```` + +* We now provide several loggers, `log_via_feedback` is removed in + favor of `set_logger feedback_logger`.
