1. doc: custom log config files need to end in _log.json not just .json …

   I struggled to find out why I couldn't get SQL queries to work on my otherwise functioning custom log file.
   
   When trying out another custom log file from a PR I realized that my file was called `postgresCustom.json` and all other log files were ending in `_log.json` (mine wasn't).
   
   When I added the magic `_log.json` SQL finally started working!
   
   Mentioning this in the docs is a good start. It would be even better if this was validated and logged in the debug logs.
   
   For example, I created the custom config via the regex101 importer like this:
   
   ```
   lnav -m regex101 import https://regex101.com/r/5CZxWI/1 postgresCustom
   ```
   
   The importer should have either complained that I must end the file name in `_log`, e.g. `postgresCustom_log`, or it should have simply appended that `_log` suffix.
