My motivation for this is I think at a bare minimum we should be able to tell the user why something fails. If parsing fails, I think it should have a way to tell the user where it failed and why.

Relevant https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/17995

This is how std.json does this I believe https://ziglang.org/documentation/master/std/#A;std:json.Diagnostics

I added logging as a simple way to achieve this functionality, since I hadn't looked into adding more complete diagnostics functionality yet

Perhaps we could look into replicating some of the functionality from std.json?
