If e2fsck.conf's logging feature is enabled, and e2fsck is being run
via systemd-fsck, there will be a deadlock since systemd-fsck is
waiting for progress_fd pipe to be closed, instead of waiting for the
fsck process to exit --- and so the logfile child process won't exit
until it can write out the logfile, and systemd won't continue the
boot process so that the file system can be remounted read-write.
Oops.

Previously e2fsck would corrupt memory if the log file name was longer
than 100 bytes (e.g., a long log_filename value in e2fsck.conf or a
pattern that expands out to more than 100 bytes). This was due to
incorrectly calling realloc() in append_string() on the struct string
instead of the malloc'ed char* buffer, among other problems. This
patch fixes the call to realloc() and also ensures that the buffer is
grown by sufficiently many bytes (not just by 2x).

The creation of inline wrappers ext2fs_open_file() and ext2fs_stat()
in commit c859cb1de0 in ext2fs.h caused
difficulties with the use of headers, since the headers for open64()
and stat64() may already be included (and skip the declaration of the
64-bit variants) before ext2fs.h is ever read. There is no real way
to solve the missing prototypes and resulting compiler warnings inside
ext2fs.h.
Since ext2fs_open_file() and ext2fs_stat() are not performance
critical operations, they do not need to be inline functions at all,
and the needed function headers can be handled properly in one file.
Similarly, posix_memalloc() was having difficulties with headers, and
was being defined in ext2fs.h, but it is now only being used by a
single file, so move the required header there.

Add the ability to log messages about a file system to a specified
directory, using a file name templace that can be specified in
/etc/e2fsck.conf. This allows us to suppress the output of overly
verbose e2fsck outputs while still allowing the full logging output to
go to an appropriate file.
