Before commit 32d07f5e59f2 ("passt, pasta: Completely avoid dynamic
memory allocation"), we didn't store the current log mask in a
variable, and we fetched it using setlogmask(0) wherever needed.

But after that commit, we can use our log_mask copy instead. And we
should: with recent glibc versions, setlogmask(0) actually results in
a system call, which causes a substantial overhead with high transfer
rates: we use setlogmask(0) even to decide we don't want to print
debug messages.

Now that we rely on log_mask in early stages, before setlogmask() is
called, we need to initialise that variable to the special LOG_EMERG
mask value right away: define LOG_EARLY to make this clearer, and,
while at it, group conditions in vlogmsg() into something more terse.

v2: Initialise log_mask so that prints before the first
    __setlogmask() call still work.
