Logs a Restier operation for the specified entity type name.
Formats the log message with appropriate verb tense based on operation type.

#### Syntax

```csharp theme={"dark"}
public static void LogOperation(string entityName, CloudNimble.EasyAF.Restier.RestierOperationType operation)
```

#### Parameters

| Name         | Type                                              | Description                                    |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| `entityName` | `string`                                          | The name of the entity type being operated on. |
| `operation`  | `CloudNimble.EasyAF.Restier.RestierOperationType` | The type of operation being performed.         |

### <Icon icon="thumbtack" iconType="duotone" color="#E0EC32" size={24} className="mr-2" /> LogOperation

Logs a Restier operation for the specified DbObservableObject entity.
Extracts the entity type name and delegates to the string-based logging method.

#### Syntax

```csharp theme={"dark"}
public static void LogOperation(CloudNimble.EasyAF.Core.DbObservableObject entity, CloudNimble.EasyAF.Restier.RestierOperationType operation)
```

#### Parameters

| Name        | Type                                              | Description                            |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| `entity`    | `CloudNimble.EasyAF.Core.DbObservableObject`      | The entity being operated on.          |
| `operation` | `CloudNimble.EasyAF.Restier.RestierOperationType` | The type of operation being performed. |

### <Icon icon="thumbtack" iconType="duotone" color="#E0EC32" size={24} className="mr-2" /> LogOperation

Logs a Restier operation for the specified identifiable entity, including the entity's ID in the log message.
Provides more detailed logging by including the specific entity identifier.

#### Syntax

```csharp theme={"dark"}
public static void LogOperation<T, TId>(T entity, CloudNimble.EasyAF.Restier.RestierOperationType operation) where T : CloudNimble.EasyAF.Core.IIdentifiable<TId> where TId : struct, System.ValueType
```

#### Parameters

| Name        | Type                                              | Description                                |

| `operation` | `CloudNimble.EasyAF.Restier.RestierOperationType` | The type of operation being performed.     |

#### Type Parameters
