If log_store() gets flags containing LOG_PREFIX, it indicates the
record getting stored should implicitly complete the previous log
record and start a new one.

We can also ensure the previous record is completed by keeping
track of the previously-logged record, and adding the LOG_NEWLINE
flag to it when log_store() sees a LOG_PREFIX flag.
