fix: Add get_log_level API to query current logging level (fixes #1345) (#1346)

Summary
Expose a small getter for the logger: get_log_level(). This complements
set_log_level() and lets callers/tests query and restore verbosity
safely. Re-exported from the top-level fortplot module.

Changes
- Add get_log_level() in fortplot_logging
- Re-export via fortplot
- Add focused test test_log_level_getter.f90
- Validate set_log_level() input: clamp to valid range [SILENT, DEBUG]
- Add test test_log_level_input_validation.f90 for out-of-range handling

Verification
Commands
- make test-ci
- fpm test --target test_log_level_getter
- fpm test --target test_log_level_input_validation

Key output excerpts
- CI-fast: CI essential test suite completed successfully
- Target (getter): Project compiled successfully
- Target (input validation): Project compiled successfully

Artifacts
- No plot/text artifacts affected.

Notes
- API is additive and backward-compatible.
- Input validation prevents undefined states from invalid integers.

---

Reviewer self-check (automation)

- Ran: `make test-ci` — passed (fast CI set).
- Focused runs: `fpm test --target test_log_level_getter`, `fpm test
--target test_log_level_input_validation` — compiled successfully.
- Non-artifact change: logging API only; no rendering affected.
- Docs fix: corrected examples to use `LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG` in
`doc/mpeg_validation.md`.

Evidence

- make test-ci (summary): CI essential test suite completed successfully
- New tests included in build; both compile and run in standard suite.

No further changes required for production readiness.

\nDocs\n- Added usage example for get_log_level() and safe restore
pattern in doc/warning_system.md.\n


Follow-up fixes
- Make FORTPLOT_FORCE_WARNINGS override all suppression (takes highest
precedence).
- Update doc/warning_system.md with clarified precedence and a
getter/restore snippet.

+
+When temporarily increasing verbosity (for example during debugging), capture the

+```fortran
+use fortplot, only: set_log_level, get_log_level, &

 ### Performance Impact
 The warning suppression system has minimal performance impact:
 - Environment variables checked once during initialization
 - Boolean flag checks for each warning (negligible overhead)
-- No impact when warnings are suppressed
