What is the Problem Being Solved?

Bootstrap is noisy:

Other areas are noisy too, depending on your purposes. E.g. run-protocol logs a bunch of things that you wouldn't be interested in unless you're debugging run-protocol.

Description of the Design

We've deferred solving logging: #1318 @dckc explained to me it's complicated by #2519 and vats can't access ENV or do any IO, even in dev. Maybe there's a way to run a vat in a certain mode that configures logging.

But some options:

• more concise output of what is logged (e.g. collapse multiline logs to one)
• opt-out options (for logs that are valuable in production but not development)
• opt-in options for what won't ever be useful in production and is only sometimes useful while debugging (e.g. like debug or anylogger used for agoric start output is super noisy #571)

Security Considerations

TBD

Test Plan

TBD

this seems to help quite a bit. Bonus points to anybody who can context switch and get it in before I can...
