If it's just the 'URI has whitespace' messages that concern you (all the
others you quote here only appear once when squid starts up), then edit
src/url.c
You'll see the debug line you want at about line 260.

I would not advise reducing your logging much. If something goes wrong
you'll really _want_ that information. If a particular message (like the
one about whitespace above) is irritating you, just comment it out of
the source and rebuild. But make a note, in case you ever want to put it
back.
