When forwarding syslog messages to Cloudwatch we often want to ship all the logs generated on the machine, at which point it becomes problematic that the bridge only sends the message content without any of the metadata - such as program name.
This PR replaces the simplistic "choose the correct message content" code with a more complex formatting function that tries to produce a text line similar to what system log files have.
