When logging is disabled via command line, log level drop down should be greyed out #10209

Description

@Qchristensen

Steps to reproduce:

Start NVDA either with the --no-logging, --secure or --log-level=100 command line switches

Open the General settings dialog (NVDA+control+g)
TAB to the Log Level drop-down
Modify the value

Actual behavior:

The drop-down selection can be changed, although the logging level is not in fact changed when the apply or OK buttons are activated.

Expected behavior:

The log level drop-down should be greyed out so the user cannot interact with it. I've already had contact from one IT administrator trying to setup NVDA securely on their system, concerned that although they have disabled logging, this drop-down can be changed, which gives the appearance that the log level can be changed.
