Use rsyslog to trigger log rotation

The previous implementation of log rotation used an hourly cron job to
check log file size and possibly perform a rotation. If the logging
rate is high, this interval may allow for root file system space
exhustion.

Utilizing rsyslog's outchannel mechanism enables log rotation to be
initiated as soon as the log file becomes larger than its configured
size.

Fixes Bug 7807.
