Custom output templates

Prerequisites: install formatting module, use one of text-based logs (console or file).
Constructing custom templates
There are two ways to obtain a custom template:
Parse it from an arbitrary string:
var template = OutputTemplate.Parse("Here's the message: {Message}{NewLine}");
Use OutputTemplateBuilder to construct it in code: 
var template = new OutputTemplateBuilder()
    .AddText("Here's the message: ")
    .AddMessage()
    .AddNewline()
    .Build();
​
Passing to a log instance
Custom output templates can be passed to text-based logs as parameters in their respective settings:
var log = new ConsoleLog(new ConsoleLogSettings
{
    OutputTemplate = customTemplate
});
var log = new FileLog(new FileLogSettings
{
    OutputTemplate = customTemplate
});
