   * Logs a telemetry `event` and its `metadata`.
   *
   * Depending on the deployment type, this will either forward the
   * data to an endpoint (set via GRIST_TELEMETRY_URL) or log it
   * directly. In hosted Grist, telemetry is logged directly, and
   * subsequently sent to an OpenSearch instance via CloudWatch. In
   * other deployment types, telemetry is forwarded to an endpoint
   * of hosted Grist, which then handles logging to OpenSearch.
   *
   * Note that `metadata` is grouped by telemetry level, with only the
   * groups meeting the current telemetry level being included in
   * what's logged. If the current telemetry level is `off`, nothing
   * will be logged. Otherwise, `metadata` will be filtered according
   * to the current telemetry level, keeping only the groups that are
   * less than or equal to the current level.
   *
   * Additionally, runtime checks are also performed to verify that the
   * event and metadata being passed in are being logged appropriately
   * for the configured telemetry level. If any checks fail, an error
   * is thrown.
   *
   * Example:
   *
   * The following will only log the `rowCount` if the telemetry level is set
   * to `limited`, and will log both the `method` and `userId` if the telemetry
   * level is set to `full`:
   *
   * ```
   * logEvent('documentUsage', {
   *   limited: {
   *     rowCount: 123,
   *   },
   *   full: {
   *     userId: 1586,
   *   },
   * });
   * ```
