/**
   This is a very simple filter based on level matching.

   <p>The filter admits two options <b>LevelToMatch</b> and
   <b>AcceptOnMatch</b>. If there is an exact match between the value
   of the <b>LevelToMatch</b> option and the level of the {@link
   LoggingEvent}, then the {@link #decide} method returns {@link
   Filter#ACCEPT} in case the <b>AcceptOnMatch</b> option value is set
   to <code>true</code>, if it is <code>false</code> then {@link
   Filter#DENY} is returned. If there is no match, {@link
   Filter#NEUTRAL} is returned.
