Joe LeVeque 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
