Log file management

When --log-file is configured, AzureHound rotates the active log when it reaches --log-max-size. Rotated logs are timestamped, stored beside the active log, and compressed with gzip by default.

Archives are retained for at most --log-max-age days and are also limited by --log-max-backups. Setting either retention option to 0 disables that individual limit. The defaults retain no more than 20 archives or 14 days of history. Only one AzureHound process should write to a given log file.
