Allow security managers to prevent system property access for Indy When using the `"indy"` setting, it tries to read a system property to enable logging. This change enables a JVM Security Manager to block this setting and therefore simply ignore the setting to use the default: do not log. From a security manager, you might otherwise catch a `SecurityException` containing: > access denied ("java.util.PropertyPermission" "groovy.indy.logging" "read") Not only is this not recoverable, but the `IndyInterface` class will be inaccessible thereafter due to it being in a `static` block that fails (the dreaded `NoClassDefFoundError`).
