Once a log file (specified on the commandline) is opened, the logging
functions will stop sending error logs to stderr, which is annoying if
passt has been started by another process that wants to collect error
messages from stderr so it can report why passt failed to start. It
would be much nicer if passt continued sending all log messages to
stderr until it daemonizes itself (at which point the process that
started passt can assume that it was started successfully).
The system log mask is set to LOG_EMERG when the process starts, and
we're already using that to do "special" logging during the period
from process start until the log level requested on the commandline is
processed (setting the log mask to something else). This period
*almost* matches with "the time before the process is daemonized"; if
we just delay setting the log mask a tiny bit, then it will match
exactly, and we can use it to determine if we need to send log
messages to stderr even when a log file has been specified and opened.
This patch delays the setting of the log mask until immediately before
the call to __daemon(). It also modifies logfn() slightly, so that it
will log to stderr any time log mask is LOG_EMERG, even if a log file
has been opened.

Add a --version option displaying that, and also include this
information in the log files.

In some environments, such as KubeVirt pods, we might not have a
system logger available. We could choose to run in foreground, but
this takes away the convenient synchronisation mechanism derived from
forking to background when interfaces are ready.
Add optional logging to file with -l/--log-file and --log-size.
Unfortunately, this means we need to duplicate features that are more
appropriately implemented by a system logger, such as rotation. Keep
that reasonably simple, by using fallocate() with range collapsing
where supported (Linux kernel >= 3.15, extent-based ext4 and XFS) and
falling back to an unsophisticated block-by-block moving of entries
toward the beginning of the file once we reach the (mandatory) size
limit.
While at it, clarify the role of LOG_EMERG in passt.c.

Logging to file is going to add some further complexity that we don't
want to squeeze into util.c.
