rsyslogd: Backport upstream commits to fix rsyslog segmentation fault when heavy load

Browse Source 
Backport <commit 9a775051f7373176c6e54bee1110965342dd41ad> and
<commit 17e1ee2539cea6bac16832b488afd52b20a348ac> from rsyslog
upstream <https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog> to solve issue:
rsyslog segmentation fault when heavy load.
Solve the race condition in GenerateLocalHostNameProperty between the
prop.Destruct(&propLocalHostName) and prop.Construct(&propLocalHostName).

Subject: [PATCH] bugfix: potential abort during HUP
This could happen when one of imklog, imzmq3, imkmsg, impstats,
imjournal, or imuxsock were under heavy load during a HUP.
closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=489
Thanks to Guy Rozendorn for reporting the problem and Peval Levhshin for
his analysis.
