ConsoleMonster.Widgets.LogRegion

Description

Creates a log region: the newest lines of a log, bottom-aligned.

In a live dashboard the log region receives Write-Host, Write-Information, Write-Warning, Write-Verbose and error output from the runspaces Start-ConsoleDashboard owns, plus Console.WriteLine from .NET code, so nothing scribbles over the screen. Write to it explicitly with Write-ConsoleLog.
