    misc: syslog: Use fixed-sized buffer and remove memstream
    
    A fixed-sized buffer is used instead of memstream for messages up to
    1024 bytes to avoid the potential BUFSIZ (8K) malloc and free for
    each syslog call.
    
    Also, since the buffer size is know, memstream is replaced with a
    malloced buffer for larger messages.
    
    Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
