port logrotate

Port the logrotate(n1) utility.

n1 - https://linux.die.net/man/8/logrotate


Use Case:

I have had use cases in both Ruby and Node.js. In short it would be good to have a log rotation utility (logrotate specifically) that existed for all of PASE.

    .This was delivered in March. It can be installed with "yum install logrotate" or via the ACS Open Source Package Management GUI.

    Definitely need this as a rpm package available in YUM!

    We had a strange anomaly during Nginx testing where over the course of a few weeks the log grew to 617GB and almost crashed our partition.
