feat(logger): ability to skip logs based on user-defined logic (#3593)

* log skipper

* do not call time.now() if logging should be skipped

* do not ignore skip func delay in latency calculation

* write docs

* write test

 ### Controlling Log output coloring
 
 By default, logs output on console should be colorized depending on the detected TTY.
