Add a "syslog/json" output format, which uses a JSON representation
(as specified in Lumberjack project, and planned for the CEE standard)
to format individual components, making the result easy to parse without
writing custom code or using unreliable regexps.
Example message (line-wrapped for readability, the actual output is a
single line):
Sep 17 21:47:22 kulicka libvirt: @cee: {"msg":"Domain not found",
"category":"../../src/test/test_driver.c","libvirt_priority":"error",
"funcname":"testLookupDomainByName","line":1403,
"timestamp":"2012-09-17 19:47:22.731+0000"}
None of the existing log output formats (e.g. "syslog" or "file") is
affected.
The JSON objects are allocated on the stack, which is a little less
convenient than allocating them from the heap, but we don't have to care
about the allocations failing, calling virReportOOMError and deadlocking
on virLogMutex.
