After #8 implement a Spring specific initializer that implements WebApplicationInitializer

Should make it possible to remove the listener from web.xml and handle configuration entirely from within Spring.

Might be problems if spring tries to log anything before the web application initializer is called.

Will properties set in the initializer be available in the root context... probably not since the root context already should have been initialized at this time.
