[Buildroot] [PATCH v3 5/8] sysklogd: update S01logging

Reformat and fix syslogd/klogd startup script for better quality and
code style:

- Implement start, stop, restart and reload as functions, like in other
  S01logging scripts, using start-stop-daemon.
- Indent with tabs, not spaces.
- Detect and report start/stop errors (previous version ignored them and
  always reported OK).
- Support a configuration file at /etc/default (an example file will be
  added in forthcomming patch).
- Support a configuration variable that completely disables the service
  and issues a warning message on any invocation.
- Do not kill syslogd in "reload". Send a SIGHUP signal, instructing it
  to perform a re-initialization. Also do not kill klogd. Send a signal
  (default 0, which does nothing). Users can configure this signal in
  /etc/default/logging to either SIGUSR1 or SIGUSR2.
