Add badges option to @tinyhttp/logger

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It adds emoji badges for better readability

Describe the solution you'd like

Add badges setting with 2 sub-settings to be used like this:

app.use(logger({ badges: { emoji: true, captions: false }))

Default values are both false - if badges: true - only toggle emoji. if an object is present - check for the settings.

first setting toggles emoji badges, like this ⚠️
second enables emoji alt text (in case emoji fails to display or just prefer the text instead), like this: warning

here's a table of emoji / texts:

emoji	text	status code
❌	Error	500
⚠️	status message	4XX (Except 404)
🆗	OK	2XX
🔎	Not Found	404

Should be logged in the beginning:

🆗 GET 200 OK /css/shared.css

Additional context

Zoya logger that has emoji:

Hi there @talentlessguy , i would like to try these on, is this mean to create a new type of middleware? or just extending logger middleware?

[talentlessguy]

@ahmad-reza619 hello, nope, as labeled on the issue, it should be done inside @tinyhttp/logger

I have a mistake in the original code that leads to confusion, my bad

edit: fixed

[ahmad-reza619]

I'm sorry for not noticing the label 😅

[talentlessguy]

@ahmad-reza619 it's fine, you can make a PR at any time you want, and the setup instructions for this repo are in CONTRIBUTING.md file

let me know if you have any questions and don't be afraid to ask them here

[ahmad-reza619]

@talentlessguy what about 3XX status code?

[ahmad-reza619]

and also, for captions what should be logged? the status or emoji name?
because you were saying

second enables emoji alt text (in case emoji fails to display or just prefer the text instead), like this: warning

but the tables didn't have any text like warning

@talentlessguy what about 3XX status code?

not sure which emoji to pick, will write back here latter

I meant alt text for emoji symbols, it can be found on Emojipedia

@ahmad-reza619 pardon for changing requiremenets, I think instead of coming up with our own emojis (and having to think which ones suit better) we better use this module:

@talentlessguy what about the alt text?

[talentlessguy]

@talentlessguy tbh I'm not sure about that we need it now... maybe it's useless?

I mean something like

500 bomb GET /

doesn't make much sense

probably not worth adding it, just the emoji then

@all-contributors please add ahmad-reza619 for code
