Description

CASSANDRA-10140 turned on gc.log by default, and set it's location to CASSANDRA_HOME/logs. It would be much better UX if when -Dcassandra.logdir was set, that it was used instead. This way users don't have to separately configure gc.log from the other log files.

Additionally, I don't think 10140 made it to trunk, as grepping for `loggc` there shows me nothing in cassandra-env.sh as of 31f67c289.
