Improve bmcweb CLI app

Enhance bmcweb CLI app error messages. Replace the loglevel flag with a
subcommand called "loglevel". Handle case where empty log levels were
being propagated to bmcwebd.

Invalid logging values are handled by the CLI. List of available states
can be determined by using the command:
bmcweb loglevel -h

Example:
bmcweb loglevel DEBUG
bmcweb loglevel debug

Enable bmcweb dynamic logging

Create a CLI app called "bmcweb" that can set logging levels on
"bmcwebd", the new bmcweb daemon. Create a dbus connection to set log
level using the CLI app Define the "setLogLevel" method on dbus to
control logging level in bmcwebd Add logic to move logging level from
build option to dynamic overloading

Reason: bmcweb picks up logging level as a compile flag. We want it to
be more flexible to debug errors in the field. Using the bmcweb CLI
app, we can set log levels on the bmcweb daemon during runtime.
Splitting bmcweb.

For example, to set logging level to INFO on the target:
bmcweb -l INFO

Update Logging option for the setting log level

In order to be able to more easily debug bmcweb related issue,
a new meson option is added to set a specific logging level
Which generates the targeted logging traces rather than all of
debug traces.

The current option -Dbmcweb-logging which can be either
disabled or enabled is changed to allow to set the log level
for the specific level traces (e.g. error or critical traces)
to be written to the journal.

-Dbmcweb-logging=<log-level>

where <log-level> can be disabled, enabled, debug, info,
warning, error, or critical.

- `disabled`: Turns off all bmcweb log traces.
- `enabled` : treated as `debug`
- Other option can be described in
[Logging Levels](DEVELOPING.md).

For an example, to enable only 'error', 'critical' log
entries, bmcweb can be built with

-Dbmcweb-logging=error

Testing:
- Verified that only the specific logs (e.g. error and
critical logs) were displayed by compiling bmcweb with the
specific bmcweb-logging level.

Attempt to document logging levels

List the 5 logging levels. Attempt to document what each does and some
example use cases.

We have a use case where we want to log internal bmcweb errors. debug is
way too chatty. Want to be able to select the logging level. This is the
documentation for that end goal.

These are loosely followed today and more patches will come to move some
traces to the appropriate level.

In our use case, we don't want to be blown up by a fuzz tester but do
want internal errors. This is the difference between error logging level
and warning logging level. Warning is used for 4xx (e.g. 404) and error
is used for 5xx.

Plan to write a tool to walk the redfish tree and try random Redfish ids
and/or try a open source fuzzing tool. The logging for these 404s should
be warning.

Moved the ## Debug logging section from the README.md to this
DEVELOPING.md. Wanted the logging all together but didn't think we had
enough for a LOGGING.md and README seems too high level for this detail.

Tested: Pushed to my fork and formatting looked good.

Document expectations for commit messages

This commit tries to be more explicit about the expectations for commit
messages and testing within bmcweb, and give maintainers something to
point to instead of repeating the same statements over and over again.

This will likely need to evolve, but I think it's a good start, and
would help people put together commits that can be merged on the first
try, rather than requiring followup.

recommends doing a more complete testing for this type of change. I
found that having some docs as reference when performing testing is
helpful for every contributor.

perform and include results in their commit messages. This doc will

bmcweb: update SSL cipher suites to OWASP compatB

Previously, bmcweb was utilitizing the "mozilla compatibility" cipher
suites. This is overly lenient on broken ciphers and can cause some
issues with security reviews. In researching this, it looks like we
never actually documented that we follow Mozilla ciphers, aside from the
statement "The OpenBMC webserver shall follow the latest OWASP recommendations for
authentication, session management, and security." Considering that
we're moving _to_ OWASP recommendations, this commit is simply making us
follow the advice we already document, although this commit also updates
the documentation to be more clear.

Tested By:
Loaded on a BMC, opened web page in browser, and observed phosphor-webui
