Description
**Describe the enhancement:**
It would be interesting to have a tracing/debug mode for the Prometheus module for all the 3 modes
**Describe a specific use case for the enhancement or feature:**
Can help trobuleshoting issues with Prometheus. It should be an applicative tracing mode to be exposed and log in debug on demand (not just a debug log, or it would pollute the logs).
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the Prometheus input implementation and identifying its three modes. Review how on-demand debug logging is exposed, then determine how an applicative trace can be enabled without polluting normal logs. Done means all three modes provide the requested troubleshooting trace through a clearly defined on-demand mechanism.
