Fix initialization of loggers that check process.env.DEBUG; quiet templating logs

[markscott-ms]

Delayed(lazy) logger initialization

Loggers that were defined as:

private static logger = initLogger(process.env.DEBUG === true, ...)

were initialized too early, before the CLI parsed the command line options. This meant that the --verbose option did not work.

This has been changed to a lazy initialisation:

  private static _logger: Logger | undefined;
  private static get logger(): Logger {
    if (!this._logger) {
      this._logger = initLogger(process.env.DEBUG === 'true', LoggingVisitor.name);
    }
    return this._logger;
  }

Quiet templating logs

Now that debug level logs are output in the templating parts of calm docify and calm template, we can reduce some of the logs from info level to debug level, so that calm docify only outputs the summary level logs by default.

• 1981 lines of output with --verbose or before this PR:
  ~/architecture-as-code/calm/getting-started$ npx calm docify --architecture ./conference-signup.arch.json --output ./website --verbose 2>&1 | wc -l
• 82 lines of output without --verbose and this PR:
  ~/architecture-as-code/calm/getting-started$ npx calm docify --architecture ./conference-signup.arch.json --output ./website 2>&1 | wc -l

Pull Request Overview

This PR fixes delayed logger initialization to ensure the --verbose CLI option works correctly, and reduces log noise by changing templating logs from info to debug level. The core issue was that loggers were initialized too early (before CLI parsing) when checking process.env.DEBUG.

Key changes:

• Converted static logger initialization to lazy getters across multiple classes
• Changed templating log levels from info to debug to reduce output noise
• Updated corresponding test expectations to match the new debug logging behavior
