[New-bugs-announce] [issue35572] Logging module cleanup

[Solomon Ucko]

New submission from Solomon Ucko <solly.ucko at gmail.com>:

The logging module should be changed to use snake_case (as opposed to camelCase). Also, logger.basicConfig should list keyword arguments and defaults in the argument list, as opposed to using `**kwargs` and `dict.pop` (for readability and improved inspection capabilities). These should both be relatively easy changes to make. The case conversion should leave the camelCase versions as deprecated but left for backwards compatibility (as in the operator module).
