Logging driver specific options.

Set custom logging configuration. The following names are supported:

path: specify a path to the log file (e.g. << 'LogOpt=path=/var/log/container/mycontainer.json' if is_quadlet else '--log-opt path=/var/log/container/mycontainer.json' >>);

max-size: specify a max size of the log file (e.g. << 'LogOpt=max-size=10mb' if is_quadlet else '--log-opt max-size=10mb' >>);

tag: specify a custom log tag for the container (e.g. << 'LogOpt=tag="{{.ImageName}}"' if is_quadlet else '--log-opt tag="{{.ImageName}}"' >>. It supports the same keys as podman inspect --format. This option is currently supported only by the journald log driver.
