Replace two stray calls to exit() with althttpd_exit() and remove one unreachable exit(). This hopefully resolves [forum post a86facf2ad|/forumpost/a86facf2ad]. ... (check-in: d4daf4a433 user: stephan tags: trunk)

Rename LOG_PID to ALTHTTPD_LOG_PID because LOG_PID is defined indirectly by syslog.h, causing it to always be defined on some builds. ... (check-in: a0a5f93c36 user: stephan tags: trunk)

In COMBINED_LOG_FORMAT builds, zero out the tm struct and set tm_isdst to -1. This causes it to render an empty time zone (feature or bug?) where it otherwise renders the local time zone name but UTC time. ... (check-in: f6ff698c53 user: stephan tags: signal-safety)

Code de-duplication. ... (check-in: cbbb27d1e8 user: stephan tags: signal-safety)
19:38
MakeLogEntry(): replace fopen()/fwrite()/fprintf() with open()/write()/custom formatting. COMBINED_LOG_FORMAT builds still use strftime() because they require date formatting we do not currently implement, but building in that mode reveals warnings which imply that that mode is no longer used. ... (check-in: bb0631a2e4 user: stephan tags: signal-safety)
15:04
In MakeLogEntry(): remove use of strftime() in non-COMBINED_LOG_FORMAT builds, replace gettimeofday() and localtime() with time() (changing the timestamps from local to zulu and reducing log stats to seconds precision). ... (check-in: bb35066b8c user: stephan tags: signal-safety)
