Description
Use the Python built-in logging module to manage messaging to the user, in particular to add finer configurable granularity of detail and/or severity of said messages, and consolidate the code so that it doesn't have to wrap anything to print with if verbose statements, like so:
As with cf-python, I think it would be useful also here to add another level as a custom one to extend the five provided, which indicates extra detail as opposed to just increased severity (see https://github.com/NCAS-CMS/cf-python/blob/de6d0b5cf9d52aa0d0302d76e68fdfab94a62004/cf/__init__.py#L359-L370).
