main/syslog: Allow dynamic logs, such as security events, to log to the syslog

The security event log uses a dynamic log level (SECURITY) that is registered
with the Asterisk logging core. Unfortunately, the syslog would ignore log
statements that had a dynamic log level associated with them. Because the
syslog cannot handle ad hoc dynamic log levels, this patch treats any dynamic
log entries sent to the syslog as logs with a level of NOTICE.
