Render newlines in the message in the web app

[colinangusmackay]

Some log messages come with newlines in the message. However, when this is rendered to the browser in Seq the newlines are not rendered so the message starts to look confusing.

e.g.
Using Microsoft.Logging.Extensions, here's the console output of a log message:

    info: Example.Startup[0]
      The following connection strings were found: MainDatabase, PostCodeLookupDatabase.
      Connection string (named MainDatabase) parameters:
       * [MainDatabase].[server] = dev.my-database-server.my-company.com
       * [MainDatabase].[database] = myDataBase
       * [MainDatabase].[user id] = myUsername
       * [MainDatabase].[password] = **********

      Connection string (named PostCodeLookupDatabase) parameters:
       * [PostCodeLookupDatabase].[provider] = MSOLEDBSQL
       * [PostCodeLookupDatabase].[server] = tcp:AvailabilityGroupListenerDnsName,1433
       * [PostCodeLookupDatabase].[multisubnetfailover] = Yes
       * [PostCodeLookupDatabase].[applicationintent] = ReadOnly
       * [PostCodeLookupDatabase].[database] = MyDB
       * [PostCodeLookupDatabase].[integrated security] = SSPI
       * [PostCodeLookupDatabase].[connect timeout] = 30

And here is the same output in Seq:

Thanks for the suggestion; it's currently "by design" but could it use another look 👍

Perhaps, if some folks don't want it, it could be a configuration toggle. Or when the log entry is expanded it gets re-rendered with the newlines.
