Discussion of bug #15804 reveals that this test didn't really prove that the syslogger child process ever launched successfully, much less did anything. It was only checking that the expected log file gets created, and that's done in the postmaster. Moreover, the test assumed it could rename the log file, which is likely to fail on Windows (cf. commit d611175e). Instead, use the default log file name pattern, which should result in a new file name being chosen after 1 second, and verify that rotation has occurred by checking for a new file name. Also add code to test that messages actually do propagate through the syslogger. In theory this version of the test should work on Windows, so revert d611175e.
