Title: Support syslog as a log target

This is an updated patch of http://lists.supervisord.org/pipermail/supervisor-users/2010-August/000664.html which enables syslog support in supervisord by treating a filename of "syslog" as a special case to use the syslog handler. This feature may at some point be moved into a separate configuration value altogether, but for now, it would be extremely useful to provide this capability for users who need to stream log content. Reference http://adam.heroku.com/past/2011/4/1/logs_are_streams_not_files/ for reasons why this feature is necessary.
