Logging for algorithms that process groups does not follow parent

[Martyn Gigg]

If you run an algorithm that does not have a special processGroups method on a group workspace then it simply runs the algorithm multiple times on each member. This behaviour is correct.

However, if you turn the logging off for the main algorithm the "child" algorithms do not follow suit and logging is still observed.

Ensure logging follows main alg when processing groups. Refs #6203

To the tester: This script would produce the usual logging output before this change, now it should be pretty quiet.

from mantid.api import *

def run_algorithm(name, logging, **kwargs):
    alg = AlgorithmManager.createUnmanaged(name)
    alg.initialize()
    alg.setLogging(logging)
    for key, value in kwargs.iteritems():
        alg.setProperty(key, value)
    alg.execute()
    return alg

#===================================================================

run_algorithm('LoadRaw',logging=False,
              OutputWorkspace='ws',Filename='CSP79590.raw')

run_algorithm('CropWorkspace', logging=False,
              InputWorkspace='ws',OutputWorkspace='ws',XMax=600)

Tester: There is still a message from LogParser. A separate ticket, [6205] has been created about this issue.

Couldn't see any logging.
