=head1 NAME

std/log - Structured logging helpers for scripts.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  from std/log import Log;

  Log.configure( {
    level: "info",
    timestamps: 1,
    stderr_for_errors: 1,
  } );

  Log.info( "started" );
  Log.warn( "missing value for ", "foo" );

=head1 IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORT

This module is supported by all implementations of ZuzuScript.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides lightweight structured logging with level
filtering, optional timestamps, and stderr routing for warnings and
errors.

=head2 Classes

=over

=item C<Log>

Static methods:

=over

=item * C<configure(options)>

Parameters: C<options> is a dictionary with optional C<level>,
C<timestamps>, and C<stderr_for_errors> fields. Returns: C<null>.
Configures global logging behaviour.

=item * C<level()>

Parameters: none. Returns: C<String>. Returns the current level name.

=item * C<debug(...)>, C<info(...)>, C<warn(...)>, C<error(...)>

Parameters: C<parts> are values to concatenate into the message.
Returns: C<null>. Writes one log line when the message level is enabled.

=item * C<log(level, ...)>

Parameters: C<level> is a level name and C<parts> are message values.
Returns: C<null>. Writes one log line at the requested dynamic level.
