journald: fix space limits reporting
Reporting of the free space was bogus, since the remaining space
was compared with the maximum allowed, instead of the current
use being compared with the maximum allowed. Simplify and fix
by reporting limits directly at the point where they are calculated.
Also, assign a UUID to the message.
