util: add timestamp and thread_name to log::Entry
What changed, and why it matters
This commit adds two pieces of metadata to each log entry: the time it was created and the name of the thread that created it. It is a straightforward internal logging improvement with no apparent security relevance.
No security action required. Review as a normal logging enhancement.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The patch extends the log::Entry struct in src/util/log.h by adding a SystemClock::time_point timestamp initialized to SystemClock::now() and a std::string thread_name initialized to util::ThreadGetInternalName(). It also adds the corresponding #include directives for util/threadnames.h and util/time.h. The change is additive and does not alter control flow, network behavior, validation logic, or cryptographic handling.
