ADDI: Disabling logging on the client if no settings exist

When I start a new workspace and no settings for ADDI are set in the preferences, then the log is written full with trace information.

In the workspace and in the product itself no tracing settings are set.
Not only the performance suffers but also the log becomes very confusing, which should be helpful when debugging a direct IDz instance or a second IDz instance (started from a first IDz instance) - is now the opposite.

!ENTRY com.ez.gdb.core.itf.impl.ODBAdminServiceImpl 1 20000 2021-06-01 15:01:05.812
!MESSAGE no orientdb settings, so no list of databases available
INFO 2021-06-01 15:01:06,814 [ODBService.pooling] com.ez.gdb.core.itf.impl.ODBAdminServiceImpl - no orientdb settings, so no list of databases available

!ENTRY com.ez.gdb.core.itf.impl.ODBAdminServiceImpl 1 20000 2021-06-01 15:01:06.814

INFO 2021-06-01 15:01:07,815 [ODBService.pooling] com.ez.gdb.core.itf.impl.ODBAdminServiceImpl - no orientdb settings, so no list of databases available

If a workspace is created in headless mode, then a connection to a static IP is attempted.
