Add ability for logger channels to include *all* levels.

Now that Asterisk modules can dynamically create and destroy logger levels
on demand, it's useful to be able to configure a logger channel (console,
file, whatever) to be able to accept log messages from *all* levels, even
levels created dynamically. This patch adds support for this, by allowing
the '*' level name to be used in logger.conf.
