Add the ability to completely disable NVDA's logging (including NVDA's crash dumps) #8516

Description

@DrSooom

Paths:

  1. NVDA menu » Preferences » Settings... » General
  2. C:\Users[Username\AppData\Local\Temp

Actual behaviour:

At the moment there isn't any way to completely disable NVDA's logging via the GUI which cause security and privacy issues in some circumstances.

Expected behaviour:

Add a new logging level called "No logging" to the combobox "Logging level". This will also disable creating the files "nvda_crash.dmp" and "nvda-old.log" in the user temp folder during a NVDA crash as well.

System configuration:

NVDA version:

2018.1 (and earlier) to 2018.2.1
