[LEDE-DEV] [PATCH 2/3] procd: Don't use syslog before its initialization

When procd starts a rcS script, it captures its stdout and stderr and
logs them to syslog. It could happen (and I don't know exactly why),
that a rcS scripts produces some output before openlog() is called in
procd. The result is that all subsequent logs from procd are logged
with ident and PID of some other service that happens to be started at
that time. I also have no clue why this is happening (bug in musl?),
but it is very confusing when one tries to debug boot problems.
Note that the problem does not appear, when booting with init_debug=5.
This problem seems to be fixed by replacing direct call to syslog()
with ULOG_NOTE, which automatically calls openlog() if needed.
