standalone notify and timestamp patch

I went back and had a look at this, and unless I am missing something
the reloading message is not being sent from the signal handler?

The handler is sighup_handler which just sets a boolean and returns,
following the usual pattern:

https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/tree/sshd.c#n298

but the notification message is sent from the platform_pre_restart()
hook, which is called from the main context from the main loop via
sighup_restart():

https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/tree/sshd.c#n304

This already does some logging, which uses format strings. Also
platform_pre_restart() already calls oom_adjust_restore() which also
uses format strings.

So I went ahead and did the necessary modifications in the latest
version, which also simplified the message handling as it can log
unconditionally now, and added the timestamp too.
I've tested this and seems to work just fine on Debian testing, I can
change ssh.service to Type=notify-reload and reloading works just fine,
including the state transitions.
