in script, how to get in script: **component action** and **page** from the python exception stack

For example, when an exception is triggered:

```auto
Error running action 'component.onActionPerformed' on pages/test@D/root/Button_2:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<function:runAction>", line 7, in runAction UnboundLocalError: local variable 'test' referenced before assignment

```

I would like to add some context information in my logger error message

Those are from the thread-local [MDC](https://www.slf4j.org/api/org/slf4j/MDC.html), and should already be annotating your log messages.

You can't, from scripting. The internal classes, hidden behind the SafetyWrapper implementations, do it via a method on [`AuditingContext`](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition81/8.1.27/com/inductiveautomation/perspective/gateway/api/AuditingContext.html#getAuditSnapshot()), basically.
