Hi,

I've committed these patches as a separate branch in the 3.3 repository.

Since this is a feature, I'm going to integrate them in 3.4 as time
permits, however since I wrote this for 3.3, I guessed you may have more
use for this version.

    pipe(): added permission setup code to pipe() sources
    
    This makes it possible to use owner/group/perm options for pipe sources.

    file-perms: refactor file permission manipulation code
    
    This patch introduces file-perms, grammar rules and a object that would
    apply user-specified permission settings to files created by syslog-ng.
