Description
I tried to submit https://github.com/rust-lang/log/pull/514 for reducing binary size, but realized that that change will break the current lazy evaluation behavior, so I closed that PR. But is is OK to add an optional feature that enables what the PR does? So users that need smaller binary size can enable this feature.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the closed pull request #514 and the current lazy evaluation behavior it would affect. Determine the scope and trade-offs of making that change optional, then define tests showing that the opt-in mode reduces binary size while the default behavior remains unchanged.
