Syntax and naming conventions

## Description

If no options are specified the `p4 logstat` command reports the sizes of the journal, error log (if it exists), and audit log (if it exists).

- Use the `-l logname` option to display the file size of the specified log.
- Use the `-s` option to report the file size for each of the structured log files defined for this server.

The following two sample commands illustrate the different output due to the use of the `-s` option.

    C:\temp\logs> p4 logstat
    journal 2591 bytes
    out 126 bytes

    C:\temp\logs> p4 logstat -s
    journal 2591 bytes
    out 255 bytes
    all.csv 13599 bytes
    commands.csv 11321 bytes
    path/to/log/files/all.csv 13599 bytes
