[#MCOL-1730] Support for syslog-ng version 3.13

The Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS distribution has syslog-ng-core version 3.13.2-3. This version requires configuration file with a version number. The ColumnStore 1.1.6 installation uses
https://github.com/mariadb-corporation/mariadb-columnstore-engine/blob/columnstore-1.1.6/oam/install_scripts/calpontSyslog-ng
that results in

[2018-09-12T16:47:44.171851] ERROR: configuration files without a version number has become unsupported in syslog-ng 3.13, please specify a version number using @version and update your configuration accordingly;

Error parsing config, syntax error, unexpected LL_ERROR, expecting $end in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf at line 3, column 1:

source s_columnstore {

^^^^^^

After adding the required first line:

@version: 3.13

the service syslog-ng start command succeeds with a warning

[2018-09-14T13:26:46.304778] WARNING: Your configuration file uses an obsoleted keyword, please update your configuration; keyword='log_prefix', change='program_override', location='/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf:11:27'

This warning disappears after replacing the line
https://github.com/mariadb-corporation/mariadb-columnstore-engine/blob/columnstore-1.1.6/oam/install_scripts/calpontSyslog-ng#L10
with

        file("/proc/kmsg" program_override("kernel: "));

With the above changes, ColumnStore 1.1.6 works with syslog-ng as expected, producing log files:
