ActiveStorageLogSuppressor

ActiveStorage is really noisy as each image that appears on a page can result in up to two requests being logged through the Rails stack.

This code hides log messages resulting from these requests by patching the base Rails frameworks classes. A few approaches are used to determine if the current context is within a request for an ActiveStorage file, depending on what information is available in each context.
