 * Provide better error notice for Tripal
 * @param $type
 *   The catagory to which this message belongs. Can be any string, but the general
 *   practice is to use the name of the module.
 * @param $message
 *   The message to store in the log. Keep $message translatable by not concatenating
 *   dynamic values into it! Variables in the message should be added by using placeholder
 *   strings alongside the variables argument to declare the value of the placeholders.
 *   See t() for documentation on how $message and $variables interact.
 * @param $variables
 *   Array of variables to replace in the message on display or NULL if message is
 *   already translated or not possible to translate.
 * @param $severity
 *   The severity of the message; one of the following values:
 *     - TRIPAL_CRITICAL: Critical conditions.
 *     - TRIPAL_ERROR: Error conditions.
 *     - TRIPAL_WARNING: Warning conditions.
 *     - TRIPAL_NOTICE: (default) Normal but significant conditions.
 *     - TRIPAL_INFO: Informational messages.
 *     - TRIPAL_DEBUG: Debug-level messages.
 * @param $options
 *   An array of options. Some available options include:
 *     - print: prints the error message to the terminal screen. Useful when display is the command-line
