Add Slack functionality inside logger

[dhruvkb]

Problem

In the ingestion_server codebase, calls to log functions like log.info and log.error are generally followed by sending the same information to Slack using the wrapper. This can be solved in a more elegant way by making Slack itself a logging destination within the Python logging framework.

Description

Integrating Slack with the logging configuration means that

• we won't have to invoke Slack everywhere manually
• Slack can make use of Pythonic log levels and other utilities like formatters

Alternatives

We can either roll with a homemade solution or use something like https://github.com/mathiasose/slacker_log_handler.

Implementation
