inconsistent logging between different providers

[Mark Mims]

lxc instances have no /var/lib/juju/units/<unit-name>/charm.log... all charm logging looks like it's going to the unit agent log in /var/log/juju/unit-<unit-name>.log

ec2 instances still have the charm.log separate from the unit-agent log.

I was quite confused by this as well at first. Seems like a by-product of the 1 machine -> multiple units paradigm that only exists in the local provider right now. Maybe if LXC is used everywhere (sans networking?) then the logging will end up consistent?

I'm fine with either, consistency is important, afaics per fhs we should do the
/var/log/juju/unit-name-escaped.log
