rotatelogs: support for echoing to stdout

Hi all,

When processing logs in real time by more than one tool, it is useful  
for rotatelogs to optionally pass logs through to stdout for further  
processing by the next tool in the chain using reliable piped logs.  
This patch makes this possible.

Regards,
Graham

Maybe add an error message to explain why rotatelogs suddenly exited
if the write fails, but otherwise looks fine to me.
