Add "Show surrounding messages" feature #610

Description

@bonny

Requested by users: add option to show events before and after the current event, no matter the inititator or logger. Just simply the events as they exist in the db.

GrayLog has support for this, calls it "Show surrounding messages" so we should just that or a similar naming. Add this to the event menu as a "Show surrounding messages" menu item with either a count or timeframe for number of events before and after (around!).

GrayLog opens it in a new tab, which sounds fine I think. This feature is probably most useful when debugging, and while debugging at least I don't want to loose the current search and pagination and so on, so a new tab sounds like a good solution.

How does the new tab with surrounding events work?

  • A special view or the regular view?
  • Should wp-cli command/param exist for this
  • Should i be possible to view/search this using the REST API?
  • As I write this I think the most logical would be to extend all above.
