714e45f0bb Cron jobs log to /var/log/cron.log once again (#620)
- Now that logrotate is a cron job that runs every minute, it was polluting syslog
 - Also shrink max size of less-important logs to 50MB and rotate them daily by default

f28790ce9a [System logs]: Fix logrotate bugs (#535)
- rsyslog logs were being rotated regardless of whether they exceeded their maixmum size. This was due to "-f" flag passed to logrotate in cron job.

- After rotation, /var/log/syslog was never written to again. Instead, logs were written to /var/log/syslog.1. This was due to rsyslog not properly closing the file descriptor to the pre-rotated log.

- Also brought back time-related rotation via the new(er) maxsize option, which performs a boolean OR operation. If the log exceeds the maxsize OR the log hasn't been rotated in the specified, it will be rotated. Using the older size option, the time-based rotation was ignored.

- Also addresses issue #528

6c202919b3 [System logs]: Eliminate duplicate log messages and attempt rotation more frequently (#520)
* Rename 'ACSFileFormat' -> 'SONiCFileFormat'

* Rename '00-acs.conf' -> '00-sonic.conf'

* Add logrotate.d and systemd-journald config files to image

* Log all SONiC process messages to /var/log/syslog; prevent duplicate logging to /var/log/messages

* Do not redirect cron and daemon logs to their own files, let them log to /var/log/syslog

* Log all teamd messages to /var/log/teamd.log; Add more SONiC program names to SONiC rules clause

* Remove duplicate code by condensing quagga programs into a list; Fix teamd log rule

* Kernel and LPR messages no longer getting duplicated to their own log files

* Now calling logrotate every minute via cron job

* Need full path to logrotate in cron job

* Add '.log' suffix to wildcards, otherwise logrotate will rotate already-rotated logs (e.g., bgpd.log.1.1.1.1.1...)

* Add microsecond granularity to syslog messages

* Don't overwrite system crontab, instead, install additional logrotate crontab file into /etc/cron.d

* Removed incomplete concept of per-process SONiC logs. We can revisit again later
