init.rc: logd: Add logpersistd (nee logcatd)
- logpersistd is defined as a thread or process in the context of the logd domain. Here we define logpersistd as logcat -f in logd domain and call it logcatd to represent its service mechanics. - Use logcatd to manage content in /data/misc/logd/ directory. - Only turn on for persist.logd.logpersistd = logcatd. - Add logpersist.start, logpersist.stop and logpersist.cat debug class executables, thus only in the eng and userdebug builds. ToDo: Wish to add Developer Options menu to turn this feature on or off, complicated by the fact that user builds have no tools with access rights to /data/misc/logd. Bug: 19608716 Change-Id: I57ad757f121c473d04f9fabe9d4820a0eca06f31
