Since we've taken upon ourselves to create a log file by default on
Windows, this adds proper management of that log file. There are two new
options:
-log-max-old-files="3" Number of old files to keep (zero to keep only current).
-log-max-size="10485760" Maximum size of any file (zero to disable log rotation).
The default values result in four files (syncthing.log, synchting.0.log,
..., syncthing.3.log) each up to 10 MiB in size. To not use log rotation
at all, the user can say --log-max-size=0.
I'm working through linter complaints, these are some fixes. Broad
categories:
1) Ignore errors where we can ignore errors: add "_ = ..." construct.
you can argue that this is annoying noise, but apart from silencing the
linter it *does* serve the purpose of highlighting that an error is
being ignored. I think this is OK, because the linter highlighted some
error cases I wasn't aware of (starting CPU profiles, for example).
2) Untyped constants where we though we had set the type.
3) A real bug where we ineffectually assigned to a shadowed err.
4) Some dead code removed.
There'll be more of these, because not all packages are fixed, but the
diff was already large enough.
