[Request] Add a configuration option to disable the query log

[astoltz]

I'm using artisan and Eloquent to do processing of a large number of database updates. Illuminate\Database\Connection tracks each query in Connection::$queryLog. This is problematic for me due to the number of queries and memory limits. I currently work around this by explicitly calling Connection::flushQueryLog(), however it would be nice to have an option to disable this for things like artisan. Having it configured as a part of the environment might be another nice option.

Added a disableQueryLog method. You can add this to your start/artisan.php file:

DB::disableQueryLog();

Saved my life... I'm not sure why it's enabled by default, I spent hours trying to figure out what eats all my memory when trying to parse 25,000 XML files.

My bootstrap/production.php disables the query log by default.

Massive +1 to this. Annoying that this isn't off by default in 4.2, fixed a huge memory leak I was having.
