Description
Looks like Run keyword and ignore error does not shield from the ERROR log messages, and tests still fail with --exitonerror flag on. Shouldn't it ignore the logs too?
Repro code:
# kw.py
import logging
def mykw(msg):
logging.error(msg)
*** Settings ***
Library kw.py
*** Test Case ***
Test
Run Keyword and ignore error mykw error msg
Test2
Log to Console This should not fail
Run with: robot --exitonerror test.robot

Research direction
Start with the reproducer in kw.py and test.robot, then run robot --exitonerror test.robot to confirm the failure. Trace how Run Keyword and Ignore Error handles the ERROR log from mykw; done means the logged error is ignored and Test2 still runs without failing the suite.
