DAQ Application log file names have a different pattern than v4.x and before

[bieryAtFnal]

In emulated-data miniDAQ systems, I've noticed that the pattern for logfile names has changed, compared to what we are familiar with for v4.x and before.

Here is a sample from an fddaq-v4.4.6 system:

log_rulocalhosteth0_5836.txt

Here is a sample from 5.x:

log_biery_test-session_ru-01.log

I'm not sure how important it is to keep the text in the middle the same, but it seems to me that it would be good to keep the prefix and the extension the same so that logfile cleanup scripts will continue to work.

If it is important to keep the new pattern, I believe that it will be important to clearly notify users and people involved in operations that it has changed.

I see, yes we can change that. Basically, you just want the .log to .txt extension to be changed, right?

We should also have configurable log path.
