- AddToActionsList(Level.DEBUG) method has been changed to only visible when ChBXDevLog is true to avoid DEVS always having it on.

- added Level.DEBUG logs throughout selenium and soak test. Due to having prior issues with selenium and Soaktest
- Bug fix in LDS.cs this stops a crossthread exception as its trying to write to AddToActionsList before it loads.
