log: Add log_check_level function

This commit adds this predicate function which can be used to
avoid the execution of code if a certain log level is not enabled.

The function will only return 0 (false), if it is sure that a logging
call for the same facility and level will not produce any output.
This safety criterion shall ensure, that no logging output is lost
due to the use of this predicate as a guard. On the other hand, even
if the predicate returns != 0 (true), no logging output might get
generated by a similar logging command.

Note that the current implementation is not focussed on performance,
which could be improved by using a lookup table instead of iterating
through every target.
