6022d3c7d0 Fix #49: add support for -8 command line option to allow 8-bit data
This patch allows the user to disable the 8-bit data check in the log
message validator.  If you have experienced problems with logging any
unicode (utf-8) messages after v1.6, this option is for you.

The correct way to handle this is to add proper parser support for the
Unicode BOM, defined in RFC5424[1], as NetBSD syslogd does[2], search
for IS_BOM().
