7f06c60810 Fix a sentence in a paragraph that describes time and interval based
trimming. This sentence vaguely can be interpreted as if it was speaking
about time and size interaction, while it wasn't about it.

ea640d778b Add new modifier - "R", when it is specified the path to pid file
will be considered as a path to a binary or a shell script to be executed
after rotation has been completed instead of sending signal to the process
id in that file.

318a43da85 Add a -S switch to override the default syslog pid file. This can be useful
if syslogd's -P switch or a syslogd alternative is being used.

7697c5e483 Remove mention of the `W' flag, which has been turned to no-op by the
neworder change. Keep the option in a config file parser, to not
violate POLA.

491abe5ac7 Move newsyslog.conf.5 to usr.sbin/newsyslog. There is no real history
other than 'initial revision' thus I did not request a repocopy.
