Enhanced error / information / debug message logging

Introduction

Throughout the different source modules, the logging of messages has quite a lot of different implementations. The purpose of this patch is to create a "standard" method to be used throughout.

Description of Patch

The initial version (Version 1.0) of this patch includes a small function, "motion_log", added to motion.c; a function prototype added to motion.h; and changes to the modules netcam.c, netcam_jpeg.c and video.c to replace all existing messages with calls to this new function. Once this much has been tested, subsequent versions of the patch (coming soon) will implement similar changes to the remaining source modules.
