Add a toggle / game.config option to show which script is doing the print (DEF-3382) #1980

This is something I support in Log

DEBUG:SCRIPT: (script/path.script) ...

I'm debugging an old big project that hasn't been touched in a while and in current Defold engine there's a ERROR:SCRIPT: (null)(null) and I have no idea where it's coming from...

Edit: it was caused by a native extension which has since been changed. The script was attempting to call a function which had been renamed. Need better error message for this kind of situation if it's possible to detect.

DEF-3382

Isn't it easier/more convenient to have your own logging function? Either by using something like "game.log(...)" or simply overriding "print()" to extra info?
