Subject: [PATCH] [Bleeding] Instantiate logger earlier in CraftServer. Fixes
 BUKKIT-4253.

Previously, if an error occurred during CraftServer initialization before the
logger was instantiated, it would cause an NPE and the server would never
finish loading properly. By instantiating the logger before attempting to
load anything else in CraftServer, we ensure that a logger will always be
available in the case of any errors.
