[logger] Allow report callback with two arguments returning a string
If the report callback is a fun of arity 2, then the second argument is a map with the keys 'encoding', 'depth' and 'chars_limit', and the fun must return a string which is size limited according to the given depth and chars_limit. If the report callback is a fun of arity 1, then it must return a tuple containing a format string and a list of arguments. The formatter will produce the string, and limit it's size.
