Is it possible to switch the follow logs in filebeat from debug to info loglevel?  
It would make troubleshooting a bit easier because debug loglevel is very verbose if you are harvesting multiple logs files.

File [file] has been renamed to..

```auto
{"log.level":"debug","@timestamp":"2024-04-22T18:05:08.204+0200","log.logger":"input.filestream","log.origin":{"function":"github.com/elastic/beats/v7/filebeat/input/filestream.(*fileProspector).onFSEvent","file.name":"filestream/prospector.go","file.line":215},"message":"File /data/log/app/appparsed/TEST-LOG-01/app-TEST-LOG-01.log has been renamed to /data/log/app/appparsed/TEST-LOG-01/app-TEST-LOG-01.log_rotated","service.name":"filebeat","id":"app_log","prospector":"file_prospector","operation":"rename","source_name":"native::748582-64768","os_id":"748582-64768","new_path":"/data/log/app/appparsed/TEST-LOG-01/app-TEST-LOG-01.log_rotated","old_path":"/data/log/app/appparsed/TEST-LOG-01/app-TEST-LOG-01.log","ecs.version":"1.6.0"}

```

A new file...

```auto
{"log.level":"debug","@timestamp":"2024-04-22T18:05:08.213+0200","log.logger":"input.filestream","log.origin":{"function":"github.com/elastic/beats/v7/filebeat/input/filestream.(*fileProspector).onFSEvent","file.name":"filestream/prospector.go","file.line":179},"message":"A new file /data/log/app/appparsed/TEST-LOG-03/app-TEST-LOG-03.log has been found","service.name":"filebeat","id":"app_log","prospector":"file_prospector","operation":"create","source_name":"native::33971680-64768","os_id":"33971680-64768","new_path":"/data/log/app/appparsed/TEST-LOG-03/app-TEST-LOG-03.log","ecs.version":"1.6.0"}

```

Thanks in advance!
