The special handling for cronjobs should probably move to the cron
module (logcheckIgnore = bool option) in the future, as it's more
natural to just declare a cronjob, and mark it as "log-ignored",
instead of adding cronjobs through logcheck.
But as systemCronjobs is not an attrset yet (just simple strings),
this would require adding an attrset for cronjobs or parsing strings
in the nix language to get hold of the cron-user and command.
So for now, I keep the interface within logcheck's module.
This allows hiding the implementation details for how to represent logstash
config types that don't directly map to nix expressions, particularly floats,
hashes, and name-value pair sets with repeated names. Instead of setting
__type and value directly, the user now uses these convenience functions to
generate their logstash config.
Since the logstash config file seemed very similar to a nixexpr, I decided
to map directly from nixexprs to logstash configs. I didn't realize until
too far in that this solution was probably way over-engineered, but it
works.
This commit adds the option 'services.syslogd.defaultConfig', which is
the main syslog.conf file used by the daemon. Like before, That file can
be extended by means of 'services.syslogd.extraConfig'. Users who want a
completely different configuration, however, can re-define defaultConfig
to their liking.
Furthermore, the option services.syslogd.tty' is now optional: setting
its value to the empty string "" disables logging to TTY altogether.

Hopefully I didn't break too much :-)

some things since there are a few relative paths in modules
(e.g. imports of system/ids.nix).
