FS#10513 - logf and logfdump fix

This patch fixes a (long standing ?) bug of logf which caused a misunderstanding of how exactly logfbuffer worked. This fix also contained a rollback of a previous fix of logfdump to accomodate the change (r22250).

Fixed in another task ( FS#10528 ).

Quick question, why dropping strcpy in favor of memcpy ? in the context of logf, imho, strcpy is better and clearer.

Because there are not equivalent in this context and because the implementation doesn't use zero-terminated strings in the buffer. For this reason str(l)cpy is not adapted: it copies a zero-terminated string. In fact, the original str(l)cpy was wrong, it did not implement the behaviour described at the beginning of the file in comments.
Anyway, this weird implementation of logf was dropped and has been replaced by a simpler one ( FS#10528 ).
