OpenJPA logs overly-verbose at INFO level

Description

OpenJPA currently outputs rather a lot of INFO-level messages, especially when using runtime enhancement. It would be nice to quiet things down a bit.

In particular, the following statements from a 'mvn package' run seem TRACE-worthy:

0 test INFO [main] openjpa.MetaData - Found 2 classes with metadata in 0 milliseconds.
0 test INFO [main] openjpa.MetaData - Parsing class "org.apache.openjpa.persistence.query.ManyOneEntity".
0 test INFO [main] openjpa.MetaData - Parsing package "org.apache.openjpa.persistence.query.ManyOneEntity".
10 test INFO [main] openjpa.MetaData - Parsing class "org.apache.openjpa.persistence.query.ManyOneEntitySub".
10 test INFO [main] openjpa.jdbc.Schema - Reading table information for schema name "null", table name "ManyOneEntity".
10 test INFO [main] openjpa.jdbc.Schema - Reading table information for schema name "null", table name "OPENJPA_SEQUENCE_TABLE".
10 test INFO [main] openjpa.jdbc.Schema - Reading sequence information for schema "null", sequence name "null".

With this change I will be able to lower the log level in OpenEJB to INFO. Currently it is set to WARN due to the extreme number of messages you get from even a small JPA application.

+1. I've thought for a while that metadata parsing should be TRACE
messages.

I didn't do an exhaustive examination of info messages; I just looked at the output from 'mvn clean package'. Therefore, there might be other inappropriately-verbose messages out there.

This is old, fixed and I voted for it a long time ago. Hopefully closing it will remove it from the list of "my votes" on the main JIRA page ;-)
