vlog: Reduce syslog level of VLL_EMER messages to LOG_ALERT.
...
The LOG_EMERG log level sprayed these messages across every xterm and
console in the system, which was excessive.

vlog: Send multi-line log messages to syslog() one line at a time.
...
syslogd swallows new-lines, which makes multi-line messages otherwise
difficult to read.

Make facility and level optional in -v, --verbose options.
...
This makes it easier to set a given module to maximum verbosity,
as is often useful for debugging.

By default, log to syslog also.
...
It seems that this should be useful for debugging post-mortems. Also,
this ensures that the "current time is negative" log message appears in
syslog. Otherwise, it won't ever, because we log it before the vlog
client has a chance to configure its log levels.

Make vlog preserve errno.
...
This means that adding logging to code disturbs the program's state
as little as possible. This is a precautionary measure, not in response
to any particular bug.
