Decrease default Synapse logging level

Browse Source 
Also discussed previously in #213 (Github Pull Request).

shared-secret-auth and rest-auth logging is still at `INFO`
intentionally, as user login events seem more important to keep.
Those modules typically don't spam as much.

## Increasing Synapse logging
Because the [Synapse](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse) Matrix server is originally very chatty when it comes to logging, we intentionally reduce its [logging level](https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html#logging-levels) from `INFO` to `WARNING`.
If you'd like to debug an issue or [report a Synapse bug](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/new/choose) to the developers, it'd be better if you temporarily increasing the logging level to `INFO` or even `DEBUG`.
Example configuration (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml`):
```yaml
matrix_synapse_log_level: "DEBUG"
matrix_synapse_storage_sql_log_level: "DEBUG"
matrix_synapse_root_log_level: "DEBUG"
```
Re-run the playbook after making these configuration changes.
