Is it possible to disable all the log spam during initialization? I’m talking about:

```auto
SendbirdChat [2024.03.22 11:28:13.625 +0900] [SendBirdChat] [INFO] initializationState Initialize state: initializing

```

**[SDK Version]**  
4.17

**[Reproduction Steps]**

```auto
SendbirdUI.setLogLevel(.none)
        
SendbirdUI.initialize(applicationId: SENDBIRD_APP_ID){ error in
            if let error {
                logger.error("SendbirdUI initialisation: \(String(describing: error))")
            }
            SendbirdUI.setLogLevel(.none)
        }

```

For now the best I’ve found is to call

```auto
SendbirdChat.setLogLevel(.error)

```

before any sort of initialization. That at least reduces the log spam to just

```auto
SendbirdChat [2024-03-22 07:50:52 +0000] 🚨SendbirdChat instance hasn't been initialized.🚨

```
