Update logv2 readme with opinionated guidance on writing good log messages

    • Type: Icon: Task Task
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Priority: Icon: Major - P3 Major - P3
    • 4.4.0-rc0, 4.7.0
    • Affects Version/s: None
    • Component/s: Logging
    • None
    • Fully Compatible
    • v4.4

      This ticket is to edit the logv2 readme file as follows:

      • Move the style guide to the top, so developers start by learning about how we want log messages to look
      • Provide clear guidance about what makes good log messages
      • Add concrete examples of interesting, good log messages

      It would probably be good to justify the use of substitution-free, literal strings for messages, and talk a little about selecting good attribute names, as well.
