Instead of doing nothing we now pass everything to log_dummyf() if a
logging macro is not enabled. This silences all the "unused variable"
warnings which are really annoying.

The kernel defines 8 severities. Lets be compatible to these numbers so
our API will not have to be changes in the future.
This also causes LOG_ALERT to be added. It is not used, yet, but may be in
the future.
We also change the parameter type of severities to "unsigned int". Enum
variables can change types if new enums are added. We don't want that so
use a fixed type.

Suppress debug, info, notice and warning messages if --silent is given.
This is overwritten by --debug and --verbose.

The new logger is much more powerful, allows online log-filter
modifications and precise debugging. We still avoid heavy file-operations
as we rely on the caller to forward stderr to a log-file and perform
log-rotations. However, we now provide a simple way to perform this
forward inside the application.

config.h is meant to be around in all files, as it contains stuff like
_GNU_SOURCE, NDEBUG and HAVE_*.
Make these definitions available without needing to #include config.h
every single time.

log_warn is much shorter and we already use log_err instead of log_error
so this is more consistent now.

We simply forward all log messages to stderr. We use syslog/prink-like severity
prefixes. Use systemd or alike to forward stderr to syslog, kernel-log or
similar.
