Implement a chunking protocol for writes to the syslogger pipe, with messages 

reassembled in the syslogger before writing to the log file. This prevents
partial messages from being written, which mucks up log rotation, and
messages from different backends being interleaved, which causes garbled
logs. Backport as far as 8.0, where the syslogger was introduced.

* Process data received through the syslogger pipe.
*
* This routine interprets the log pipe protocol which sends log messages as
* (hopefully atomic) chunks - such chunks are detected and reassembled here.
*
* The protocol has a header that starts with two nul bytes, then has a 16 bit
* length, the pid of the sending process, and a flag to indicate if it is
* the last chunk in a message. Incomplete chunks are saved until we read some
* more, and non-final chunks are accumulated until we get the final chunk.
*
* All of this is to avoid 2 problems:
* . partial messages being written to logfiles (messes rotation), and
* . messages from different backends being interleaved (messages garbled).
*
* Any non-protocol messages are written out directly. These should only come
* from non-PostgreSQL sources, however (e.g. third party libraries writing to
* stderr).
*
* logbuffer is the data input buffer, and *bytes_in_logbuffer is the number
* of bytes present. On exit, any not-yet-eaten data is left-justified in
* logbuffer, and *bytes_in_logbuffer is updated.
