improved logging + log to file

Logging is now set at two levels:
logging.ERROR and more important messages are shown on the console while running inkcal.
logging.DEBUG (all) messages are logged inside a log file named inkycal.log in /Inkycal/logs.

Fixed an issue with the info section not updating the time correctly.
