audit: log failed attempts to change audit_pid configuration
Failed attempts to change the audit_pid configuration are not presently logged. One case is an attempt to starve an old auditd by starting up a new auditd when the old one is still alive and active. The other case is an attempt to orphan a new auditd when an old auditd shuts down. Log both as AUDIT_CONFIG_CHANGE messages with failure result.
