integration_tests: set log-cli-level to INFO by default (#737)

This gives us more detailed integration testing output by default.
This will make debugging failures reported by users/developers easier to
debug, as it removes the need for an initial round-trip to get the
output we need for debugging.  It will also make debugging intermittent
failures easier: there will definitely be log output from runs which
exhibit the intermittent failure.
