RFR 8150840: Add an internal system property to control the default level of System.Logger when java.logging is not present.

[Roger Riggs]

Hi Daniel,

Good idea.

SimpleConsolerLogger.java:
    Some of the property accesses could use the existing property 
actions instead of anonymous inner classes.

static Level getDefaultLevel() {
String levelName = AccessController.doPrivileged( new sun.security.action.GetPropertyAction("jdk.system.logger.level", "INFO")); ...
