enforce log retention policies
* for access logs, save meta-data about the log file itself in a simple format. * implement a proof-of-concept shell script that removes log files after one month. * ensure retention enforcer is started when services start * note that retention enforcer will continue running even after services stop, but it has protection to ensure that it won't multiply endlessly.
