Clarify discarding due to options #210

I couldn't find any documentation or place in code where -exclude-types or equivalent would be specified. I could probably get the info with verbose logging, but since the docs doesn't cover it:

What was discarded? I didn't specify to exclude manually, may -google-photos be the culprit?

You should enable log and change the log level to INFO to have the details

$ immich-go -server=https://REDACTED -key=REDACTED -log-file=immich-go.log -log-level=INFO upload -google-photos Google\ Photos

Yes, I understand and did. The point here is that generic 'discarded some photos' erodes the feeling of safety / no data loss in migration.

A concrete 'excluded x because of dupe as determined by y' would be superb.

Duplicates are reported as duplicates.

With the latest version the log file is always produced with INFO level. It contains the reason while files are discarded
