[xep-support] API Driver.Init method

[Chris Bowditch]

We are using the RenderX API, and we are calling Driver.init after
putting any necessary renderX settings into System.getProperties()
object. However, in the latest version 3.63, we noticed that a number of
spurious messages about unrecognized option are sent to System.out.

After some investigation, it seems that the latest version of XEP
outputs an unrecognized option message to std out for everything (except
XEP settings) in the System.getProperties() object.

I also noticed that the latest API has an overloaded version of
Driver.init() to which a specific Properties object can be passed. I
have tried to work round this issue by calling the new Driver.init method 
and passing a new Properties object containing just renderX specific 
options. However, the messages are still sent to System.out.

I feel it is bad behaviour for XEP to be sending warnings to
System.out. Instead it could send these messages to the EventLogger or
just ignore them. After all its not unusual for System.getProperties to
be filled with all sorts of settings.
