When constructing the journal filename to store logs from a remote host, remove the port of the tcp connection, as the port will change with every reboot/connection loss between sender/reveiver machines. Having the port in the filename will cause a new journal file to be created for every reboot or connection loss. For the implementation, a new argument "bool include_port" is added to the getpeername_pretty() function. This is passed to the sockaddr_pretty() function. The value of the include_port argument is set to true in all calls of getpeername_pretty(), except for 2 calls in journal-remote.c, where it is set to false.

FWIW, this looks sane to me. Sorry for the delay. |

This pull request extends #2078. It actually includes the changes of 2078, so if this pull request is accepted, 2078 can be closed. I created 2078 separately because it is much simpler and it has a distinct functionality
