[log] Add debug logging to config validation error factories#8108

Conversation
Add logValidation.Printf calls to UndefinedVariable, MissingRequired, InvalidPattern, and SchemaValidationError in internal/config/validation_errors.go. These factory functions create ValidationError values for config failures. Logging at creation time makes it easier to trace which validation path triggered an error when debugging configuration issues with DEBUG=config:*.

Pull request overview
This PR improves debuggability of configuration validation by adding logValidation.Printf debug logs inside several ValidationError factory helpers, so DEBUG=config:* output includes the specific JSON path and context that triggered the validation failure.
Changes:
- Added debug logging to
UndefinedVariable,MissingRequired,InvalidPattern, andSchemaValidationError. - Kept existing error values/formatting unchanged while increasing diagnostic context at error-construction time.

Adds
logValidation.Printfdebug logging to four validation error factory functions ininternal/config/validation_errors.gothat were previously silent.Changes
Added debug logging to:
UndefinedVariable— logs the JSON path and variable name when an env var reference is unresolvedMissingRequired— logs field name, server type, and JSON path when a required field is absentInvalidPattern— logs field name and value when a pattern match fails (e.g. container image, URL, mount)SchemaValidationError— logs server type and message for schema validation failuresUnsupportedTypealready had a log call;InvalidValueandUnsupportedFieldare either trivial delegates or general-purpose and left unlogged.Why
When debugging configuration issues (e.g.
DEBUG=config:*), there was no way to trace which specific validation path triggered an error. Logging at construction time provides the exact JSON path and context without any side effects on the returned error values.Validation
