Log:
  MFC r249983: syslogd: Use closefrom() instead of getdtablesize()/close()
  loop.
  
  When syslogd forks a process for '|' destinations, it closes all file
  descriptors greater than 2.
  
  Use closefrom() for this instead of a getdtablesize()/close() loop because
  it is both faster and avoids leaving file descriptors open because the limit
  was lowered after they were opened.
