feat(configuration): add error and warn log levels (#2050)
This is so levels like warn and error can be used to exclude info or warn messages. Additionally there is a reasonable refactoring of logging moving the log config options to the logging key because there are a significant number of log options now. This also decouples the expvars and pprof handlers from the log level, and they are now configured by server.enable_expvars and server.enable_pprof at any logging level.

# Server
The server section configures and tunes the http server module Authelia uses.
## Configuration
```yaml
server:
read_buffer_size: 4096
write_buffer_size: 4096
path: ""
enable_pprof: false
enable_expvars: false
```
## Options
### read_buffer_size
<div markdown="1">
type: integer
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
default: 4096
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
required: no
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
</div>
Configures the maximum request size. The default of 4096 is generally sufficient for most use cases.
### write_buffer_size
<div markdown="1">
type: integer
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
default: 4096
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
required: no
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
</div>
Configures the maximum response size. The default of 4096 is generally sufficient for most use cases.
### path
<div markdown="1">
type: string
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
default: ""
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
required: no
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
</div>
Authelia by default is served from the root `/` location, either via its own domain or subdomain.
Modifying this setting will allow you to serve Authelia out from a specified base path. Please note
that currently only a single level path is supported meaning slashes are not allowed, and only
alphanumeric characters are supported.
Example: https://auth.example.com/, https://example.com/
```yaml
server:
path: ""
```
Example: https://auth.example.com/authelia/, https://example.com/authelia/
```yaml
server:
path: authelia
```
### enable_pprof
<div markdown="1">
type: boolean
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
default: false
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
required: no
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
</div>
Enables the go pprof endpoints.
### enable_expvars
<div markdown="1">
type: boolean
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
default: false
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
required: no
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
</div>
Enables the go expvars endpoints.
## Additional Notes
### Buffer Sizes
The read and write buffer sizes generally should be the same. This is because when Authelia verifies
if the user is authorized to visit a URL, it also sends back nearly the same size response as the request. However
you're able to tune these individually depending on your needs.
