This adds a section about the new logging directory configuration feature to the "Logging and logger configuration" tutorial, and also adds it to the list of new features for Galactic.

Relates to ros2/rcl_logging#53

Relates to ros2/launch#460

Note that I haven't tested the Windows & MacOS commands (but I'm assuming that the latter is fine).

Thanks for documenting the feature.
Your description is really clear!

@ivanpauno ivanpauno added the enhancement New feature or request label Sep 30, 2020
To start with you will only see output from log calls with severity ``INFO`` and above (``WARN``, ``ERROR``, ``FATAL``).
Note that the first message will only be logged once, though the line is reached on each iteration, as that is a property of the log call used for that message.

It's probably worth mentioning here that this feature is only available since Galactic, since this tutorial is generically applying to all distros. (cc/ @maryaB-osr does that sound right?)

Good point. I added a note in 7c686c7, but if there's a better way let me know.

I think the note is reasonable enough for now. We are working on versioning things better in this repository, but we can go with this until then.
