Parameter filtering in Elixir Phoenix logs

Sometimes you want to filter out parameters that are being logged (think GDPR compliance). Enter Phoenix's handy config filter_parameters :

config :phoenix, :filter_parameters, ["password", "birthday"]

Or if you want to be extra safe, you can filter all parameters and only whitelist ones you want to see. For example: id and order:

config :phoenix, :filter_parameters, {:keep, ["id", "order"]}
