feat: Support fanning out parent record into multiple child syncs

    1. Override `get_child_context(record, context: Dict) -> dict` to return a new
       child context object based on records and any existing context from the parent stream.
+   1. If you need to sync more than one child stream per parent record, you can override
+      `generate_child_contexts(record, context: Dict) -> Iterable[dict]` to yield as many
+      contexts as you need.
 3. If the parent stream's replication key won't get updated when child items are changed,
    indicate this by adding `ignore_parent_replication_key = True` in the child stream
    class declaration.
