fix(python-sdk): document logger ignore list separation and ASGI chained exception option

[Copilot]

SDK PRs getsentry/sentry-python#5698 and #5714 introduced new public API and config that the skill doesn't cover.

references/logging.md — new logger ignore helpers

ignore_logger() now only suppresses breadcrumbs/events, not Sentry Logs. New helpers:

from sentry_sdk.integrations.logging import (
    ignore_logger,                      # breadcrumbs + events only
    ignore_logger_for_sentry_logs,      # Sentry Logs only
    unignore_logger,                    # reverse ignore_logger()
    unignore_logger_for_sentry_logs,    # reverse ignore_logger_for_sentry_logs()
)

• Added explanation of separate ignore lists with code examples
• Added helper summary table and three new Decision Table entries
• Added two troubleshooting entries for the new behavior

SKILL.md — experimental ASGI option

• Added suppress_asgi_chained_exceptions to troubleshooting table (experimental, under _experiments, defaults to True)

SDK Changes Detected

The following PRs were merged to getsentry/sentry-python in the last 7 days that may affect the sentry-python-sdk skill:

• feat(asgi): Add option to disable suppressing chained exceptions sentry-python#5714 — feat(asgi): Add option to disable suppressing chained exceptions (feat(asgi): Add option to disable suppressing chained exceptions sentry-python#5714)
• feat(logging): Separate ignore lists for events/breadcrumbs and sentry logs sentry-python#5698 — feat(logging): Separate ignore lists for events/breadcrumbs and sentry logs (feat(logging): Separate ignore lists for events/breadcrumbs and sentry logs sentry-python#5698)

Potential Skill Gaps

1. New Config Option: PR #5714 adds the experimental suppress_asgi_chained_exceptions init option (defaults to True). When set to False, chained exceptions in ASGI middleware are no longer suppressed. This option is not mentioned in SKILL.md or any reference files.

2. New Logging Helpers: PR #5698 splits the internal logger ignore list into two independent sets and exposes new public helpers:

   • ignore_logger_for_sentry_logs(name) — silences a logger for structured Sentry Logs only (without affecting breadcrumbs or error events)
   • unignore_logger(name) / unignore_logger_for_sentry_logs(name) — reverse the ignore

   The current references/logging.md documents ignore_logger() (which affects breadcrumbs and error events) but does not mention the new ignore_logger_for_sentry_logs() helper. This is especially relevant for framework loggers like django.server that are silenced by default for error events but should still be captured as Sentry Logs.
