Description
Describe the feature
We need to be able to write messages to log files, no matter which value global logging level is set.
Or, as a better option, to be able to set a log filter, to allow for only messages matching specific tag(s) to be logged.
Use Case
Here is the issue.
Logging level is set globally, so if I want to log a couple of warn messages from my code, I find log files polluted to the limit with tons (literally) of messages from other subsystems, like some HTTP threads logging "warnings" several times every millisecond:
[WARN] 2025-10-14 13:41:58.209 http-connection [103460] id=01019428: Outgoing frames task sent no data, will try again next tick.
[WARN] 2025-10-14 13:41:58.209 http-connection [103460] id=01019428: Outgoing frames task sent no data, will try again next tick.

Proposed Solution
- Add unconditional logging macro
- Add logging filtering, a list of tags allowed (or not allowed) to log, or, a better solution, an optional bool function, accepting a tag, passed to logging macro.
