SOLR-8186: suppress log4j access warnings.
> Solr start scripts -- only log to console when running in foreground

> Currently the log4j.properties file logs to the console, and the start
> scripts capture console output to a logfile that never rotates. This can
> fill up the disk, and when the logfile is removed, the user might be alarmed
> by the way their memory statistics behave -- the "cached" memory might have a
> sudden and very large drop, making it appear to a novice that the huge
> logfile was hogging their memory.
> The logfile created by log4j is rotated when it gets big enough, so that
> logfile is unlikely to fill up the disk.
> I propose that we copy the current log4j.properties file to something like
> log4j-foreground.properties, remove CONSOLE logging in the log4j.properties
> file, and have the start script use the alternate config file when running in
> the foreground. This way users will see the logging output when running in
> the foreground, but it will be absent when running normally.
