Log.Debug causes massive slowdown on Wii #18

Calling Log.Debug() inside a Tick() function takes approximately 11 ms per tick on Wii, causing massive slowdown. This does not occur in Dolphin, only on real Wii hardware.

This also happens with LogError(), including the one found in line 103 of Engine/Source/Engine/Nodes/3D/TextMesh3d.cpp This means every TextMesh3d node will waste 1 ms per tick on Wii. Removing the LogError fixes the issue for the time being.

I'm not sure if I'll get around to optimizing logging on GCN/Wii any time soon, but there is Log.Enable() Lua function you can call to disable logging.

Also thanks for pointing out the LogError() in TextMesh3d.cpp. I just pushed a commit to remove it.
