Allow Ingress to Modify the HAProxy Log Length when using a Sidecar

1. Proposed title of this feature request

Allow Ingress to be modified the log length when using a sidecar

2. What is the nature and description of the request?

In the past we had the RFE-1794 where an option was created to specify the length of the HAProxy log, however this option was only available for when redirecting the log for an external syslog. We need this option to be available for when using a sidecar to collect the logs.

apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
kind: IngressController
metadata:
  name: default
  namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
spec:
  replicas: 2
  logging:
    access:
      destination:
        type: Container
        container: {}

Differently from the Syslog type, the Container type does not have any sub-parameter, which makes possible to configurate the log length.

As we can see in the RFE-1794, the option to change the log length already exists in the haproxy configuration, but when using the sidecar, only the default value(1024) is used.

3. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

The default log length of HAProxy is 1024. When the clients communicate to the application with the long uri arguments, it cannot catch the full access log and the parameter info. It is required a option to setup 8192 or higher.
