	// Logger returns a new [Logger] with the provided name and configuration.
	//
	// The name needs to uniquely identify the source of logged code. It is
	// recommended that name is the Go package name of the library using a log
	// bridge (note: this is not the name of the bridge package). Most
	// commonly, this means a bridge will need to accept this value from its
	// users.
	//
	// If name is empty, implementations need to provide a default name.
	//
	// The version of the packages using a bridge can be critical information
	// to include when logging. The bridge should accept this version
	// information and use the [WithInstrumentationVersion] option to configure
	// the Logger appropriately.
	//
	// Implementations of this method need to be safe for a user to call
	// concurrently.
