Update Logging option for the setting log level
In order to be able to more easily debug bmcweb related issue, a new meson option is added to set a specific logging level Which generates the targeted logging traces rather than all of debug traces. The current option -Dbmcweb-logging which can be either disabled or enabled is changed to allow to set the log level for the specific level traces (e.g. error or critical traces) to be written to the journal. -Dbmcweb-logging=<log-level> where <log-level> can be disabled, enabled, debug, info, warning, error, or critical. - `disabled`: Turns off all bmcweb log traces. - `enabled` : treated as `debug` - Other option can be described in [Logging Levels](DEVELOPING.md). For an example, to enable only 'error', 'critical' log entries, bmcweb can be built with -Dbmcweb-logging=error Testing: - Verified that only the specific logs (e.g. error and critical logs) were displayed by compiling bmcweb with the specific bmcweb-logging level.
