Patrick Ohly c272727dc1 local sync: added target context to [INFO/DEBUG/...] prefix
Source names already contained the context in local sync, both in
parent and child process. But normal messages often did not
distinguish between parent and child, unless the message itself
explicitly remembered to include that information.

Now the child process puts its context into the [] prefix, like this:
[INFO @foobar] xyz...

For some messages this duplicates information, but better too often
than not often enough.

* - error: severe problem which the user and developer have to

* - warning: a problem that was handled, but users and developers
* probably will want to know about
* - info: information about a sync session which the user
* will want to read during/after each sync session
* - developer: information about a sync session that is not
* interesting for a user (for example, because it
* is constant and already known) but which should
* be in each log because developers need to know
* it. Messages logged with this calls will be included
* at LOG_LEVEL_INFO, therefore messages should be small and
* not recur so that the log file size remains small.
* - debug: most detailed logging, messages may be arbitrarily large
*
* Here is a decision tree which helps to pick the right level:
* - an error: => ERROR
* - a non-fatal error: => WARNING
* - it changes during each sync or marks important steps
* in the sync: INFO
* - same as before, but without the [INFO] prefix added to each line: => SHOW
* - small, non-recurring message which is important for developers
* who read a log produced at LOG_LEVEL_INFO: DEVELOPER
* - everything else: DEBUG
