syslog.conf: disable debug messages by default from /var/log/syslog

Browse Source 
Many projects use sysklogd with the shipped syslog.conf as their own
default /etc/syslog.conf.  This is fine of course, but for many small
embedded systems getting all debug messages in the log by default is not
desirable.

This change drops debug messages from /var/log/syslog by default and
recommends admins to use /var/log/debug, or drop the debug filter.
