[BusyBox] syslogd -p option

I've implemented the -p option for syslogd, which allows a socket other
than /dev/log to be selected. This is needed if / is mounted read-only.

Example:

ln -s /var/dev/log /dev/log
syslogd -R loghost -p /var/dev/log

The patch is attached. I also hit the problem Denton Gentry found with
serial consoles and ls dividing by zero, but I've removed it from my
patch since his solution is simpler.
