I have added getExplicitLevel as a method to LoggerConfig. This returns the LoggerConfig's Level or null. Please verify and close.

> When _org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.LoggerConfig.level_ is set to _null_ the logging level is inherited from the parent:
> {code:java}
> public Level getLevel() {
>   return level == null ? parent == null ? Level.ERROR : parent.getLevel() : level;
> } 
> {code}
> It would be useful to know if level is explicitly set or inherited.
> Something like: {_}hasLevel(){_}, {_}isLevelSet(){_}, {_}isLevelInherited(){_}, or something that fits into Log4j terminology.
