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

I have multiple AWS accounts. CloudWatch logs are gathered into one AWS account using an OAM sink. This results in an AWS web console that looks like this. In the below screenshot, note that some log groups have an Account ID column set to a specific value. This is what I would like to filter log groups by, rather than using a prefix.

Describe the solution you'd like

Some way of configuring the receiver so that it will only look at log groups coming from certain AWS accounts, probably as specified by the account ID.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Currently we are using the prefix setting, but this is omitting some log groups from the AWS account in question because not all log groups start with a predictable prefix.
