ctdb-logging: Add logging via UDP to 127.0.0.1:514 to syslog backend
This has most of the advantages of the old logd with none of the complexity of the extra process. There are several good syslog implementations that can listen on the UDP port. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwenke <martin@meltin.net> Reviewed-by: Amitay Isaacs <amitay@gmail.com>

+ CTDB will log to syslog via UDP to
+ localhost:514. The syslog daemon must be
+ configured to listen on (at least)
+ localhost:514. Most syslog daemons will log
+ the messages with hostname "localhost" - this
+ is a limitation of the implementation, for
+ compatibility with more syslog daemons.
