Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * If Nova services are configured to log to syslog (use_syslog=True) they
     will currently fail with ECONNREFUSED if they cannot connect to syslog.
     This patch adds support for allowing nova to retry connecting a 
     configurable number of times before print an error message and continuing
     with startup.

  [Test Case]

   * Configure nova with use_syslog=True in nova.conf, stop rsyslog service and
     restart nova services. Check that upstart nova logs to see retries 
     occurring then start rsyslog and observe connection succeed and 
     nova-compute startup.

  [Regression Potential]

   * None
