I think it would be better if we added this option via a kconfig fragment
in OE-Core if DISTRO_FEATURES contained systemd and then remove this from
here. I say this because otherwise size of circular buffer goes back to 16k
from 64k and may not be enough to hold valuable info. On modern systems I
think we can afford 64k. I would even argue to make it default in busybox.
having said that, busybox-syslogd may be redundant when using systemd since
we have journald with systemd but there might still be lot of use cases
of busybox-syslogd. Either of these above approaches are fine with me.
