Log to syslog:
 * replace 'most' log-related instances of util with a logger object
 * logger object sets up syslog logging (if configured)
 * listed 'node-syslog' as an optional dependency
Handle debug logging.
Default loglevel (for syslog) in config file.
Using %d rather than %i in StatsdClient.java example.

%i isn't a valid conversion type for String formatters: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/Formatter.html
Removing unused method.
Finalizing variables that aren't set elsewhere for safety.
Reversing variable order to make up for missing method.  Whoops.

debian packaging enhancements
Test if the supplied log level is defined in node-syslog.
Remove eval()! :)
Fixed locale bug in Java client.  Specifically, String.format() is locale dependent, so if the system locale is a country that uses commas for decimal places, for example, Germany, then when the sample rate is formatted, you end up with "0,1" instead of "0.1".  Solution is to use Locale.ENGLISH everywhere.
debian/statsd.init: fix the start-stop-daemon --test line.

give the same arguments as the real start-stop-daemon line (startas
instead of exec), otherwise the daemon is not properly detected as started.
