> We need to add a mechanism for delaying log writes within the logging framework for the case where some asynchronous lookup needs to happen in a non-base script.  There are a few requirements:
>  \\- The mechanism needs to copy the log record so that future modifications of the record aren't impacted unless deliberately modifying the delayed record.
>  \\- Three functions in Log:: namespace to register and unregister delays for logs and one to get access to the delayed log by it's delay token.
>  \\- Additional configuration option in logging framework to configure a default logging delay.  It's possible that we should set the default stream delay in the stream configuration record.
