[PAXLOGGING] Integration tests using Karaf

[Grzegorz Grzybek]

Hello

With https://ops4j1.jira.com/browse/PAXLOGGING-262 I added Karaf (4.2.6) test support to Pax Logging.

As guessed, it was tricky:

 - custom Karaf distro had to be prepared to contain pax-logging bundles from current reactor

 - logging configuration for pax-exam-container-karaf forked by maven-failsafe-plugin and forking another (3rd) JVM with Karaf itself has to be careful

Some findings/highlights:

 - I created very slim pax-exam configuration for custom Karaf distro built just before the integration tests (separate Maven artifact)

 - there are no conflicts between logging from Maven, logging from forked pax-exam and forked Karaf

 - default service log provided by pax-logging-api (even before it starts! just after it resolves) works like a charm - bundle started BEFORE pax-logging-api can successfully log through SLF4J API

I described the details in https://github.com/ops4j/org.ops4j.pax.logging/tree/paxlogging-1.11.x#testing-in-karaf

best regards
