Give us some context
When looking into a support ticket, I noticed that the Logs API docs were confusing about which fields we'd use as a timestamp. This PR attempts to clarify that.
Note that
log_timestampis only used in built-in parsing rules, and we intentionally don't use that attribute as the log time, maybe because originally we weren't confident that the parsing rules could parse timestamps correctly?
