chore: provide an option to specify log level per topic

[chaitanyaprem]

Description

Trying to provide a config to enable loglevel per topic.

Noticed a weird issue where while trying to set loglevel using the config it fails if the topics have spaces in them e.g "waku mix" and works without any issues when using wakumix without spaces.
Not sure if it is a bug in chronicles or something else.

Also i was not able to set the logLevel for underlying mix protocol code eventhough i have specified a topic name. Need to debug this.

Thanks for the PR @chaitanyaprem . Nevertheless, I'm not super convinced this is needed :)
I'd explore other options first and maybe double-check whether there's an issue in nim-chronicles.
The log level should be the same in the whole app/lib. We can't have such complex mixture of loglevels.

well, i think this would be a very useful feature for debugging. Becase right now if i enable trace level globally and want to debug there is a flood of logs and it becomes hard to filter things out especially when logs keep filling up disk space.
With a topic level config, we can debug specific module we are developing especially when testing with TWN etc we can ask node runners to just enable TRACE level for a certain module.

ah okay I see, makes sense indeed.
Did you try setting chronicles_enabled_topics compilation flag? I think so as per the PR's description but not sure. I think I would go through that direction, if possible :)
