Peter Krempa c018efa863 daemon: Limit default log level to journald to VIR_LOG_INFO
Libvirt is really chatty when the DEBUG log level is enabled. When a
host uses journald we'd enable debug logging to journald when only
specifying the debug log level. As journald may employ rate throttling
this would lock up the daemon until it's able to flush all debug
messages.

This patch changes the default log level to VIR_LOG_INFO when using the
default (unconfigured) log output to journald.

To still allow debug logging to journald the user now has to explicitly
specify journald as a log output with priority 1 in the "log_outputs"
configuration option. This patch also changes the config file template
to be explicit about this change and notify the user about the possible
consequence of debug logging into journald.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
