Description

See #42324 for background.

Since StartupInfoLogger was first introduced we've added more features that could be useful to log. The application.name and application.version could be useful as could the git SHA if it's available.

We need to be a little careful not to add too much information and not to change the defaults in a way that folks won't like.
