0354f5d48f internals: Decouple logging an error from exiting unsuccessfully
This lets _dbus_warn() and _dbus_warn_check_failed() fall through
to flushing stderr and calling _dbus_abort(), meaning that failed
checks and warnings can result in a core dump as intended.
By renaming the FATAL severity to ERROR, we ensure that any code
contributions that assumed the old semantics will fail to compile.

4d6495d03d test/internals/syslog: Switch to g_test_trap_subprocess()
This re-executes the same binary with special command-line options
instead of forking. As a result, it can work on Windows, and is less
dependent on Unix libraries continuing to work across a fork().

(This has been confirmed to work in Windows binaries running under Wine.)

92bd5ef290 _dbus_logv: configurably log to syslog and/or stderr
This changes the behaviour of _dbus_logv() if _dbus_init_system_log() was
not called. Previously, _dbus_logv() would always log to syslog;
additionally, it would log to stderr, unless the process is dbus-daemon
and it was started by systemd. Now, it will log to stderr only,
unless _dbus_init_system_log() was called first.

This is the desired behaviour because when we hook up
_dbus_warn_check_failed() to _dbus_logv() in the next commit, we don't
want typical users of libdbus to start logging their check failures to
syslog - we only want the dbus-daemon to do that.

In practice this is not usually a behaviour change, because there was
only one situation in which we called _dbus_logv() without first calling
_dbus_init_system_log(), namely an error while parsing configuration
files. Initialize the system log "just in time" in that situation
to preserve existing behaviour.

This is a step towards making it write to either stderr or syslog
or both, as configured globally.

2ab900b678 Do not suppress syslog test's stderr just because init is systemd
This causes the test to fail. The assumption implicitly being made was
"if pid 1 is systemd, then every caller of _dbus_init_system_log() is a
systemd service" which is not valid for the regression test.
