added ability to execute actions only after the n-th call of the action
This also lead to the addition of two new config directives: $ActionExecOnlyEveryNthTime and $ActionExecOnlyEveryNthTimeTimeout This feature is useful, for example, for alerting: it permits you to send an alert only after at least n occurences of a specific message have been seen by rsyslogd. This protectes against false positives due to waiting for additional confirmation.
