This patch allows to log hexdumps into syslog.

This is useful when testing, as syslog's network logging
helps to collect debug outputs from several machines.

Ha, was just about to submit nearly the same thing.  You missed
hexdump_ascii which is a PITA so I punted and pushed the data through
the hexdump routine. Please look at this:

https://gerrit.chromium.org/gerrit/14800

which shows where I was going but is still changing.

Feel free to take from my change w/o attribution.

I guess that's fine for this purpose. You could remove the extra #ifdef
block in the end and just return from the function after the
_wpa_hexdump call to keep the code structure a bit simpler.
