daemon: send stderr of service programs to the syslog
If git-daemon is run with --detach or --inetd, then stderr is explicitly redirected to /dev/null. But notice that the service programs were spawned via execl_git_cmd(), in particular, the stderr channel is inherited from the daemon. This means that errors that the programs wrote to stderr (for example, via die()), went to /dev/null. This patch arranges that the daemon does not merely exec the service program, but forks it and monitors stderr of the child; it writes the errors that it produces to the daemons log via logerror(). A consequence is that the daemon process remains in memory for the full duration of the service program, but this cannot be avoided.
