This patch migrates the sysklogd project to use the modern /dev/kmsg
interface on Linux. There are many advantages over the older /proc
interface; 1) no need to wait for /proc to be mounted, 2) it provides
multiple simultaneous access. For more information, see:

When building sysklogd on a uClibc system we must define _GNU_SOURCE to
get O_CLOEXEC.
Since _GNU_SOURCE is also required for asprintf() with GLIBC, as used by
the pidfile() replacement function, we drop it from there and rely on
AM_CPPFLAGS for all sources.

only make $(LIBOBJS) depend on $(LTLIBOBJS) still have race condition,
library like pidfile.o may be changed when compile or link for target
libsyslog_la_LIBADD, which will cause problem like below:

The `make distcheckclean` command fails because of lingering .o files in
lib/.libs/ which it shouldn't, since both AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR() and the
subdir-objects automake options are set.
This workaround is ugly, but works for now.

- Drop weak bindings, use simple #define in compat.h instead
- No need to #ifdef sources with HAVE_foo, configure handles this for us
- Move utimensat() declaration to compat.h from pidfile.c to be consistent
With these changes we can let libsyslog link with the replacement objs,
just like syslogd and logger does. Because even if the C-library does
*not* have strlcpy() & C:o *and* an application has a local copy of any
of these APIs, our versions are prefixed with __ in the symbol table.

Only reset f_fime when the filed is in normal operation, not suspended,
otherwise the INET_SUSPEND_TIME handling is broken.

When sending to a remote syslog server, configured as an IP address or
when the DNS name has already been resolved, we may get temporary error
messages like ENETUNREACH and similar from sendmsg().
Before this patch the whole filed was placed in F_FORW_SUSP, like failed
DNS resolve, which introduces a 180 sec delay before even trying again.
A better approach is to just try again with the next syslog message.

The original idea with libcompat was to keep as few objects as
possible for linking with libsyslog. That in turn to prevent
a user of libsyslog from suddenly also getting strong binding
to symbols like strlcpy() from libsyslog, rather than their C
library of choice.
However, this caused strlcpy.c to be built as both .o and .lo
files, which in turn caused really bizarre build problems due
to bad DAG dependency.
This patch drops libcompat and instead marks all replacement APIs
as weak symbols, which a C library can override.
