Improve logging

See: http://groups.google.com/group/google-gears/msg/099167c69813c238

There should be an easier way for users to send us debug data. Maybe an
item in the start menu?

Agreed, we should have better logging.  It should also be more consistent (e.g.
across browsers and OSes).

This can happen as part of the logging cleanup.  I'd suggest:
(1) Switch to using logging.h
(2) Add a 'Write Log?' check during Gears init (like where TLS is setup)
    that calls SetMinLogLevel() in logging.h (to enable or disable).

Ok, I see now what you meant by logging.h -- import 
googleclient/shared/logging.h
into Gears.

I still think that it would be nice if it was really easy (eg a UI element) to 
enable
and obtain the logs. We lose a lot of feedback because people just go away when 
it is
too hard to send us logging data.

So, there are really two steps:
* Replace LOG() currently used throughout Gears with a solid
googleclient/shared/logging.h implementation.
* Add some UI to enable logging.h and obtain the result.
