Description

Today all the logger ids are defined here: https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/blob/master/source/common/common/logger.h#L24

This issue tracks making it possible to have extensions register their own ids, making it easier to set specific log levels for extensions developed outside the upstream repo.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the current logger definitions in source/common/common/logger.h and understand how extension authors could add new logger ids. Look for existing patterns of registration and propose a mechanism for dynamic registration.
