enhancement(kubernetes_logs source): add container_start_time to k8s_logs
This adds the container start time to the kubernetes_logs
source. While container_id
helps distinguish between different instances of the same container, it does not clarify the time-order of these container. Often, we want to be able to look at the logs
My understanding (not confirmed, but based on my understanding of kubernetes) is that this field may not be filled in before the container starts. This means some early log lines may have chance of missing this label. If this is actually the case, its still useful to use the existence of log lines with both the container_id
and start_time
label to associate container instances with their start time
