History
Emery Hemingway 2b8c1af9e0 remove 'filename' from ROM sesion args 
Conveying the ROM filename as the final label element simplifies
routing policy and session construction.

Annotations by nfeske:

This commit also changes the ROM session to use base/log.h instead of
base/printf.h, which produced build error of VirtualBox because the
vbox headers have a '#define Log', which collides with the content of
base/log.h. Hence, this commit has to take precautions to resolve this
conflict.

The commit alse refines the previous session-label change by adding a
new 'Session_label::prefix' method and removing the use of 'char const *'
from this part of the API.

Fixes #1787

README 

The 'rom_tar' service obtains a TAR archive via a ROM connection and, in turn,
provides the files contained in the TAR archive as individual ROM sessions.
The name of the TAR archive must be specified via the 'name' attribute of
an 'archive' tag, for example:

! <config>
!   <archive name="archive.tar"/>
! </config>

The backing store for the dataspaces exported via ROM sessions is accounted
on the 'rom_tar' service (not on its clients) to make the use of 'rom_tar'
transparent to the regular users of core's ROM service. Hence, this service
must not be used by multiple clients that do not trust each other.
