Subject: [PATCH] MDEV-6655: mysqld_multi default log location in wrong
 directory (#2285)

The mysqld_multi script template used @datadir@ as default log
destination, this is not the MariaDB datadir in this context though
but rather the -- typically write-only -- /share dir.

The correct placeholder to use here is @localstatedir@ which gets
replaced with the actual MariaDB datadir
