Why I did it
In parallel of this change Arista added a custom logrotate configuration as part of its driver library.
Having 2 logrotate configuration for the same log file triggers an issue.
Fixesaristanetworks/sonic#38
How I did it
Arista merged a few changes in sonic-buildimage which added a logrotate configuration aristanetworks/sonic@e43c797
It is therefore the right path to remove the arista.log line from the logrotate.d/rsyslog configuration.
How to verify it
Logrotate works without any error message, arista log rotation happens and arista daemons still append logs once file was truncated.
This issue causes negative threshold value and thus deleting log files even when there is enough space.

- Why I did it
To fix an issue when log files get deleted even if there is enough space.
- How I did it
Fixed an typo.
- How to verify it
Run the portion of the script that calculates threshold, see that the threshold is calculated correctly.

Why I did it
The existing log file size in sonic is 1 Mb. Over a period of time this leads to huge number of log files which becomes difficult for monitoring applications to handle.
Instead of large number of small files, the size of the log file is not set to 16 Mb which reduces the number of files over a period of time.
How I did it
Changed the size parameter and related macros in logrotate config for rsyslog
How to verify it
Execute logrotate manually and verify the limit when the file gets rotated.
