Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As reported on the Discord https://discord.com/channels/908281611840282624/915644818988863558/1335798024382971924
Quickwit always record a warn log on explicitly aborted transform with abort expression. But users may want to drop it.
Describe the solution you'd like
Originally there is drop_on_abort (default: true) option in Vector configuration.

I'd like to suggest adding the same to Quickwit.
Describe alternatives you've considered
User could set RUST_LOG to such as quickwit_indexing::actors::vrl_processing=error to avoid the warning.
But it's far from ideal solution because it'll not inform user what is real problems or intentionally aborted ones.
