[jira] [Created] (GEODE-8892) Loosen restrictions on log file names

Blake Bender created GEODE-8892:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Loosen restrictions on log file names
                 Key: GEODE-8892
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-8892
             Project: Geode
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: native client
            Reporter: Blake Bender


When rewriting the logger for GEODE-8806, we added validation to log file names using `boost::filesystem::portable_file_name`, which puts restrictions on the name that didn't exist before, depending on the platform.  At least one Windows user has hit this with a log file name that is perfectly okay for that platform, so for compatibility's sake we need to switch to use another validation method, or simply throw an exception if we're unable to open the file.
