Since log files might contain a lot of data that is not relevant, the maxLogingDays allows one to limit the number of files that will be used. For example if maxLogingDays=14 files that their last modified time is older than 14 days will not be read. Signed-off-by: Tzachi Dar <tzachi.dar@gmail.com>

On linux it is common to use logrotate to handle log files.
Logrotate trunks the files as they reach a certain size and also zips them.
Sometimes it is needed to open more than one file and show them on chainsaw.
An example to the content of such a directory is:
pump-loop-date.log
pump-loop-date.log.1
pump-loop-date.log.2.gz
pump-loop-date.log.3.gz
The goal is pass the directory name and the files pattern.
For example:
sftp://user:pass@192.168.1.20:20022/var/log/openaps/pump-loop-date.log*
and have chainsaw show all matching files by their order.
