rsyslog has facilities to read from journal, send the full data in
text, receive and read it back, and even write it back to journal at
the destination. (Full disclosure I haven't actually tried such a
chain up, and I wouldn't be surprised if there were some differences
between this and just copying the journal binary logs.)
