syslog.h fails to compile with -Wwrite-strings

PR: 27492
Submitted by: Alexey V. Neyman <avn@any.ru>

Add the "LOG_CONSOLE" facility and tell syslogd to not log it on
console devices.

Change #ifdef KERNEL to #ifdef _KERNEL in the public headers. "KERNEL"
is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot). This is cons

Change #ifdef KERNEL to #ifdef _KERNEL in the public headers. "KERNEL"
is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot). This is consistant with the other
BSD's who made this change quite some time ago. More commits to come.

This is the addition of a syslog(3) security.* top-level category. This
should be used from now on for anything security but not auth-related.
Included are updates for all relevant manpages and also to /etc files,
creating a new /var/log/security. Nothing in the system logs to
/var/log/security yet as of the time of this commit.

Added macros __printflike() and __scanflike() to <sys/cdefs.h>.
Use them to `make gcc -Wformat' check formats for all printf-like
and scanf-like functions in /usr/src except for the err()/warn()
family. err() isn't quite printf-like since its format arg can
legitimately be NULL. syslog() isn't quite printf-like, but gcc
already accepts %m, even for plain printf() when it shouldn't.

Since i've just touched <sys/syslog.h>, thereby causing a large part
of the system to be rebuilt anyway, this is a good time to introduce
LOG_NTP.

The reasoning for a separate facility is that xntpd can sometimes
cause exaggerative log message at high prioritites which are,
depending on your environment and available clock sources, not
necessarily as important as other LOG_DAEMON messages. However, they
used to clutter log files and system console in the existing setup.
Note that this situation could not be resolved using the !xntpd option
(think about it).

xntpd(8) is supposed to automatically pick up the change, it had
already all necessary #ifdef's.

The chosen value does, as far as my inquiries yielded, not clash with
any other operating system.

Shift the value for INTERNAL_MARK left by 3, as done for all other
facilities. This fixes the problems reported about syslogd not
recording marks correctly.

Add backward compatibility so that static executables built on
modern FreeBSD systems will syslog properly on older systems that
still name the logging socket "/dev/log". This includes pre-2.2
versions of FreeBSD as well as BSD/OS systems. If the connect to
"/var/run/log" fails, the function now tries to connect to
"/dev/log" as a fallback.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been

Back out change of log from being in /var/run to back in /dev

syslog.h -> changed /dev/log to be /var/run/log (its a socket, not a device)

Fix up some sloppy coding practices:

- Delete redundant declarations.
- Add -Wredundant-declarations to Makefile.i386 so they don't come back.
- Delete sloppy COMMON-style declarations of uninitialized data in
header files.
- Add a few prototypes.
- Clean up warnings resulting from the above.

NB: ioconf.c will still generate a redundant-declaration warning, which
is unavoidable unless somebody volunteers to make `config' smarter.
