OSID - osid.logging.LogNotificationSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.logging.LogNotificationSession
Implements	`osid.OsidSession`
Description	This session defines methods to receive notifications on adds/changes to `Log` objects. This session is intended for consumers needing to synchronize their state with this service without the use of polling. Notifications are cancelled when this session is closed. Notifications are triggered with changes to the `Log` object itself. Adding and removing entries result in notifications available from the notification session for log entries.
