Crate libpt_log

A specialized Logger for pt

This crate is part of pt, but can also be used as a standalone module.

For the library version, only the basic tracing is used, so that it is possible for the end user to use the tracing frontend they desire.

I did however decide to create a Logger struct. This struct is mainly intended to be used with the python module of pt, but is still just as usable in other contexts.

Technologies used for logging:

• tracing: base logging crate
• tracing_appender: Used to log to files
• tracing_subscriber: Used to do actual logging, formatting, to stdout
