Fix issue with NekMesh Python logger

Dave Moxey requested to merge fix/nekmesh-python-logger into master

Issue/feature addressed

This MR fixes a small sequencing issue with the NekMesh Python API. When modules are created, if an unknown key is used in the initialisation of the module then a segmentation fault is raised because the output uses an uninitialised logger reference, e.g.

from NekPy.NekMesh import Mesh, InputModule
mesh = Mesh()
module = InputModule("xml", mesh, "input.xml", unknownconfig = False)
module.Process() # this line will segfault

Proposed solution

Re-order the parsing of configuration options so that the logger is constructed before any other options are set.

Implementation

See above.

Tests

One small test has been added as a unit test.
