[meta-oe][PATCH] systemd-netlogd: new recipe

[Rasmus Villemoes]

From: Rasmus Villemoes <ravi@prevas.dk>

In some deployments, the log aggregator collects log messages in the
syslog format, so systemd-journal-upload and friends can not be
used.

systemd-netlogd is a daemon for filling that gap.

Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <ravi@prevas.dk>

Originally sent to oe-core, but it was suggested the meta-oe might be
a better place for this.

Thanks for your contribution, since this recipe depends on systemd, it
would make it specific to that being in distro features so it can be
safely ignored on
non-systemd distros.

IIUC, you're asking me to add

REQUIRED_DISTRO_FEATURES = "systemd"

to the recipe? Yes, that makes sense.
