#20623: hostapd: no logging of wpa_printf messages

hostapd internally uses few functions for logging, e.g.:
1. hostapd_logger
2. wpa_printf
----
The first one works perfectly fine in OpenWrt. Whenever there is:
{{{
hostapd_logger(hapd, NULL, HOSTAPD_MODULE_IEEE80211, HOSTAPD_LEVEL_INFO,
"Foo\n");
}}}
it works OK, a following line appears in syslog:
{{{
daemon.info hostapd: wlan0: IEEE 802.11 Foo
}}}
Above works because `hostapd_logger` (wpa_debug.c) calls
`hostapd_logger_cb` (wpa_debug.c) which points to the `hostapd_logger_cb`
(main.c). That last function calls `syslog(priority, "%s", format);`.
----
Unfortunately logging messages printed by hostapd with `wpa_printf`
doesn't work at all. Whenever something like:
{{{
wpa_printf(MSG_ERROR, "Foo\n");
}}}
is executed, nothing appears in a syslog. In current implementation &
config `_wpa_printf` calls `vprintf(fmt, ap);` which doesn't result in
message appearing in a syslog.
