Richard Purdie 44f2059a93 shadow-native: Disable syslog usage
Spamming the build host's syslog with useradd information during image creation
isn't great. Add a patch to disable that.

It may be possible to convince upstream to make it a configure option but for
now the patch is trivial and reduces host impact to the logs.

This is a workaround for a more general syslog(d) design problem -
syslogd should log the current system time for each event, and not
