Subject: logger: always update header when read from stdin
The current code updates the header only when the priority has been
changed. It's incorrect because wanted is a valid header or each entry
(don't forget that logger for stdin use-case is used in pipe to log
long-time running processes).
This patch also fixes the initial timestamp; it was originally generated
on logger startup, it now generates the header on the first message.
$ (sleep 2; date; sleep 2; date; sleep 2; date) | logger --stderr --no-act
