The problem/use-case that the feature addresses

Currently logging to stdout cannot be formatted. Since i am redirecting stdout from running redis in a docker container to a syslog server i do not need the additional timestamp format, cause i will see it twice in that case.

Description of the feature

It would be helpful if it is possible to define the logging format, or at least (in my case) provide a option in redis.conf file to suppress writing timestamps.

I am not sure we should do that. Redis log implementation is very concise, I think we should keep it simple. For your case, i think you can change code easily, just remove timestamp in this line. Of course, you can implement your format https://github.com/redis/redis/blob/unstable/src/server.c#L1109-L1110

I wouldn't be against making the the line on 1109 take a string from the server config, allowing it to be configured. That seems like 5 lines of code, and could potentially solve other use cases.
