logd: fix persistent blocking reader performance

logd suffers major performance degradation when persistent (blocking)
client reader connects to it (e.g. logcat). The root cause of the
degradation is that each time when reader is notified of the arrival
of new log entries, the reader commences its search for the new entries
from the beginning of the linked list (oldest entries first).

This commit alters the search to start from the end of the linked list
and work backwards. This dramatically decreases logd CPU consumption
when blocking reader is connected, and increases the maximum logging
throughput (before the logs start getting lost) by a factor ~ 20.
