Update the dependency to slf4j-api to 1.6.x
-------------------------------------------

                 Key: HV-419
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-419
             Project: Hibernate Validator
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: engine
            Reporter: Gunnar Morling
             Fix For: 4.2.0.Beta2


Starting with version 1.6.0 (current is 1.6.1) slf4j doesn't require a binding anymore. If no binding is found on the classpath at runtime, simply no logging will happen, but no exception will be thrown as with previous versions the case.

So by upgrading the dependency to slf4j-api to 1.6.x we will have one runtime dependency less for HV users who don't want/need HV's log messages.
