When running multiple instances of ptp4l or phc2sys, it's difficult to
tell which log message belongs to which instance. Add new options to
ptp4l and phc2sys which can specify a tag for all messages printed to
the standard output or system log, so messages from different instances
can have different tags.

this patch updates the global set functions to allow the user to set the
proper value instead of only being allowed to enable (or disable) a particular
feature. The new patch allows the function to specify exactly what they want
the value to be.
This patch also clarifies what -q and -v do by removing mention of quiet mode
and verbose mode. It is easy for a user to confuse and assume that -q disables
-v when this is not true.

When diagnosing a log file, it can be useful to know the relative time
between the log entries. In contrast, the PID is mostly useless, since
the program does not ever fork.
