1.3.6: If individual log files missing at startup, rescan for file each minute. Overridable hostname

Release Notes

Individual log files will now scan for the specified filename each minute, if it didn't exist at agent startup, just like scanning for new files in directories. Hostname is now overridable through hostname config var.
