xenserver: ovs-external-ids log to file instead of syslog

ovs-external-ids was crashing on startup because it was brought up
before /dev/log exists.  The simplest solution to this problem is
to have it log to /var/log/openvswitch/ovs-external-ids.log .  This
is consistent with vswitchd and ovsdb-server.
