help command still prone to SQL shenanigans about awakemud HOT 3 CLOSED

Thanks for providing the stack trace. I did some digging, and this looks like it's actually a problem with passing the string to the format function. Check this out:

help %s %d %f %ld
No such help file exists.

produces in console

May 25 06:33:54 :: Executing query: SELECT * FROM help_topic WHERE name LIKE '%s 1606389179 0.000000 1407347997671763777753757666454RDER BY name ASC

I've moved the old log function to log_vfprintf and added a new log function that does not format the string passed to it. This should make it easier to avoid leaking memory into the logs.

Pushed the new code. Please test it out and see if the problem is fixed on your end.

That did it. No more segfaults.
