b3d0a9b638 Revert "syslog.conf: disable debug messages by default from /var/log/syslog"
This reverts commit 4fd55cd1ac because it
has caused more problems than it was intended to fix.  If users get too
much debug log messages they can add this themselves, but if they don't
get their log messages they will believe there's something wrong with
their application generating the logs.

The file /var/log/syslog is supposed to log everything, except auth*.

a5bf845118 Enforce 'secure_mode 1' in default syslog.conf file
This disables the "unauthenticated remote disk-filling service" by
default.  A user can easily change this to 0 (or 2) to allow other
systems to log to their syslogd.

4fd55cd1ac syslog.conf: disable debug messages by default from /var/log/syslog
Many projects use sysklogd with the shipped syslog.conf as their own
default /etc/syslog.conf.  This is fine of course, but for many small
embedded systems getting all debug messages in the log by default is not
desirable.

This change drops debug messages from /var/log/syslog by default and
recommends admins to use /var/log/debug, or drop the debug filter.
