debian: configure journald with ForwardToSyslog=yes ourselves (LP: #2147513)
For a very long time, the systemd package in Debian/Ubuntu has shipped a
jourald.conf snippet with ForwardToSyslog=yes. This was originally
because many syslog implementations had not added support for reading
from the journal directly.
Now, most syslog implementations do support reading from the journal,
including rsyslog. However, the rsyslog package is not configured to use
that functionality, and hence needs the journal forwarding still.
Since this a direct requirement of this package, and not
systemd-journald, define that configuration snippet here to allow
systemd to drop it.
