Control the filename & the instantiation of the TSynLog

Hi Arnaud,

The way (so called per-family) the TSynLog class works is somehow confusing, and that way is not suitable in some cases. Is there a way to control the target file name and the instantiation of a TSynLog object?

What I want is something like this:

var
  myLog: TSynLog;
begin
  myLog := TSynLog.Create();
  myLog.FileName := 'my log file for this operation at this time';
  myLog.Log(sllInfo, 'starting...');
  //...
  myLog.Release;

Yes. For now until you are adding any new additions to the logging library, looks like I can override TSynLog.CreateLogWriter() to archive what I need...
