  [SRU] unmatched entries for postfix

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Postfix backwards-compatibility notices aren't handled by logwatch,
  and thus end up in the "Unmatched Entries" section, one per event.
  These informational messages clutters up the logwatch reports
  unnecessarily.

  [Test Case]

  $ export CODENAME="focal"
  $ lxc launch ubuntu:${CODENAME} test-logwatch
  $ lxc exec test-logwatch -- bash

  # apt-get update
  # apt-get dist-upgrade -y
  # apt-get install -y postfix
  # apt-get install -y logwatch

  # wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/logwatch/+bug/1583705/+attachment/5407064/+files/unmatched-entries-postfix%3Amail.log
  # cat unmatched-entries-postfix:mail.log >> /var/log/mail.log

  # logwatch --detail High --service all --range all --output stdout

  Without the fix, there will be unmatched entries regarding backwards-
  compatibility; with the fix there will be a simpler notice that
  Postfix is running in backwards compatible mode.

  (Note: For testing it's not really necessary to trigger the original
  condition that produces the log entry, since for Logwatch the purpose
  is more about making sure the entry is detected and processed
  appropriately.)

  [Regression Potential]

  Since logwatch filters logs for errors pertinent to administrators,
  standard things to watch out for are undesired changes in this filtering
  behavior, such as flagging or failing to flag issues differently than
  before, other than the specific messages being filtered with this
  change.

  [Original Report]
  Under the "Postfix" heading, the following lines appear as unmatched:

  **Unmatched Entries**
        1   May 18 16:58:35 Hostname postfix[4027]: Postfix is running with backwards-compatible default settings
        1   May 18 16:58:35 Hostname postfix[4027]: To disable backwards compatibility use "postconf compatibility_level=2" and "postfix reload"
        1   May 18 16:58:35 Hostname postfix[4027]: See http://www.postfix.org/COMPATIBILITY_README.html for details
        1   May 18 16:57:12 Hostname postgrey[2173]: Resolved [localhost]:10023 to [127.0.0.1]:10023, IPv4
