Create useful entries in "Audit log" Merged

please review your records created in „Audit Log“ and enrich them with necessary information.

E.g. an entry with text “Updated application config.” helps no one. At least minimal information must be given to identify the related entity and enable someone to revert the change done - i.e. in this case application name and old/new filter!

Please also persist it in the backend’s log directory. It is not comfortable to download json every few days manually…
