Cy Schubert 71e03d424b This is commit two of a two commit set:
Reduce supported syslog-ng ports to the latest syslog-ng supported by
our upstream, oniedentity.com. Upstream does not officially support
earlier releases. This commit reduces unofficial support expectations
and allows us to rely totally on upstream for support.

This commit copies syslog-ng from syslog-ng329, which contains the full
history of the syslog-ng family of ports. Whereas syslog-ng became a
meta-port many moons ago to support multiple versions of syslog-ng in
the tree. We will only support syslog-ng supported by our upstream.

Discussed wth:  Peter Czanik (CzP) <peter.czanik@oneidentity.com>

Plaintext

syslog-ng is an enhanced log daemon, supporting a wide range of input and
output methods: syslog, unstructured text, message queues, databases (SQL
and NoSQL alike) and more.
Key features:
* receive and send RFC3164 and RFC5424 style syslog messages
* work with any kind of unstructured data
* receive and send JSON formatted messages
* classify and structure logs with builtin parsers (csv-parser(),
db-parser(), ...)
* normalize, crunch and process logs as they flow through the system
* hand on messages for further processing using message queues (like
AMQP), files or databases (like PostgreSQL or MongoDB).
