enable this feature in the defconfig yet disable it by default.
Expose configuration of the feature through the syslog-startup.conf file
and the syslog init script.

This changes the default in syslog-startup.conf to log messages
to a file (/var/log/messages) because:
a) we already mount /var/log as a volatile mount by default
b) users are accustomed to looking at /var/log/messages as
most distributions don't ship with logread

This option has been disabled in busybox since 2007 as it was deemed too
buggy. See:

Busybox 1.19 introduced basic support for an rsyslog inspired syslog.conf
whereas we've been shipping syslog.conf as a file to be sourced by the
syslog init script in order to configure which options busybox's syslog is
started with.
Busybox 1.19 in syslog mode chokes on our syslog.conf and doesn't start.
This patch renames the syslog.conf we ship to syslog-startup.conf in order
to prevent busybox trying to parse the file as an rsyslog style syslog.conf
