As of v8.2008 rsyslog no longer provides a default service file, and now
suggests using the platform suggested defaults. For Buildroot, install
the Debian service file which has been added in the same version,
however is not included in the official release.

Upstream commit which adds this service file:
https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/commit/cfd07503ba055100a84d75d1a78a5c6cceb9fdab
