I want my generated text file name of format. "D:\Log\FileName-{Date}-INew.txt"
Currently its appending Date towards the end of the file,
"D:\Log\FileName-INew-20231010.txt"
Expected
"D:\Log\FileName-20231010-INew.txt"

            .WriteTo.Logger(l =>
            {
                l.WriteTo.File(
                        config.GetValue<string>(GenericConstants.TentFilePathKey)!,
                        rollingInterval: RollingInterval.Day,
                        retainedFileCountLimit: null,
                        outputTemplate: GenericConstants.LogOutputTemplateToken
                );
                l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Properties.ContainsKey(GenericConstants.NewFile));
            });

Duplicate of #243 - the logic for generating filenames is definitely minimal in nature at present, but lots of people put up with that spartan nature.

Solving that would involve:

• defining the possibilities to provide
• defining a clear API/mechanism for specifying it
• correlating the feature request with the current implementation to make sure it's implementable
• implementing it

In particular, I'd read this reply from Nick, which outlines the thinking as to why the naming strategy is not necessarily something that there's appetite to add a lot of complexity to.

There are some forks too, which may have and/or consider adding such a facility, e.g. https://github.com/dfacto-lab/serilog-sinks-file

Had left this open in case you wanted to respond; assuming the above covers it
