Hi all,

this is my attempt at an AJAX log viewer for Pakfire, as I promised here:
https://lists.ipfire.org/pipermail/development/2021-November/011585.html

Stefan's patch must be applied beforehand for this to work!
https://patchwork.ipfire.org/patch/4842

In the last patch of this series, I remove the "sleep" calls.
If someone has a very slow system, please test both variants, to see if "sleep" is still necessary there.

Happy testing!

Best regards
Leo
