Build libsyslog for Coverity Scan - #1661
Merged

Conversation
The weekly Coverity Scan fails in confd's configure step:
configure: error: Package requirements (libsyslog >= 2.7.0) were not met
confd links against libsyslog since the infix-syslog:log RPC was
added, but the workflow only builds libyang, sysrepo, and libite.
Build and install libsyslog from sysklogd, pinned to the same version
as Buildroot, skipping the logger tool and systemd unit.
