Changelog

1. Added a ‎$show_context parameter (default ‎false): This allows you to toggle whether function, class, and type context is included in the log prefix.
2. Docblock updated:: It now describes the new parameter and its effect.
3. Conditional context logic: The function, class, and type are only added to the log prefix if ‎$show_context is ‎true.
