Start to use the "info" log level

Ludovico de Nittis requested to merge wip/use_info_log into master

Now that we have the ability to set the log level to "info", this commit promotes, from the debug level, all the messages that can be useful to have, for debugging purposes, but that are not too lousy.

Over time, when we also gain more first hand experience with the issue reports that users provide, we can tweak the log messages even more.

When launching Steam with STEAM_LINUX_RUNTIME_LOG=1 a game log will weighs ~20KB, compared to the ~450KB of STEAM_LINUX_RUNTIME_VERBOSE=1, and it should not contain any sensitive information apart from the username.

@smcv let me know what you think about it.
