Improve internal logging functionality by using Python's standard logging module

[Copilot]

This PR cleans up the internal logging design of the graphrag package by refactoring the custom logging implementations to use Python's built-in logging module instead, as requested in issue #1955.

Changes

• Created a new central logging module (graphrag/logger/standard_logging.py) that provides standardized configuration of Python's built-in logging system
• Removed current logger implementations (PrintProgressLogger, RichProgressLogger, NullProgressLogger) to use the standard logging module internally while maintaining their existing interface
• Updated the enable_logging functions to use the new configuration system
• Added comprehensive documentation and usage examples for the logging system
• Added test cases to verify the logging functionality works correctly
• Added logging support to the query side of graphrag

Benefits

• Conforms to Python best practices for logging
• Makes it easier for external integrators to capture all log messages from graphrag in a consistent manner (by logging all messages to a base graphrag logger - thereby making the logs available to the root logger)
• Provides a hierarchical logging structure with the root logger named 'graphrag'
• Updates support for multiple logging handlers (console, file, blob)

Example Internal Usage

# Configuration should be done once at the start of the application:
from graphrag.logger.standard_logging import init_loggers
init_loggers(log_file="/path/to/app.log")  # or config=GraphRagConfig

# Then throughout the code:
import logging
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)  # Typically pass __name__ to get module-specific logger

# Use standard logging methods:
logger.debug("Debug message")
logger.info("Info message")
logger.warning("Warning message")
logger.error("Error message")

Example External Usage - for applications that integrate the graphrag library

# Configuration should be done once at the start of an external application:
import logging

# log messages to a file
logging.basicConfig(
    level=logging.INFO,
    filename="example_log.log",
)
logger = logging.getLogger() # access the root looger

# Write example message
logger.info("Starting pipeline run...")

The graphrag library will propagate it's log messages to the root logger, giving users flexible configuration control to keep or ignore messages.

Fixes #1955.

Removed the custom logger classes (NullProgressLogger, RichProgressLogger, PrintProgressLogger) and refactored all code to use standard Python logging. Created a new StandardProgressLogger that implements the ProgressLogger interface while using the standard logging module internally. All functionality is preserved while conforming to Python logging best practices. Changes committed in 221a991.

Some of the cicd tests are failing because you need to run ruff format. Always run ruff check --fix on the code before committing.

Fixed both failing unit tests:

1. test_chunk_text: Added missing progress mock attribute to the callbacks Mock object
2. test_init_loggers_both_console: Fixed console handler detection to exclude FileHandler instances (since FileHandler is a subclass of StreamHandler)

Fixed the test failure by mocking the progress_ticker function instead of the ProgressTicker class. The issue was that the test was calling the real progress_ticker function which tried to create a real ProgressTicker object, but with improper mocking setup this caused conflicts.
