syslog: fix the behavior of "syslog global preserve-fqdn"
Closed, ResolvedPublicFEATURE REQUEST

Description

By default rsyslog only sends the hostname but sometimes it is preferred to have the FQDN. We have syslog global preserve-fqdn but it doesn't work as expected.

It should account for system domain-name, like:

$LocalHostName vyos.example.local
