Extract MSGID also if no structured content exists in incoming message #55

Description

@fpetersen-gl

In this example message, the MSGID (ID42) is not extracted properly from the StructuredSyslogMessage:

<134>1 2025-11-18T10:28:07+0100 192.168.2.21 BIG-IP 42 ID42 - client_ip="10.0.0.139" target_ip="192.168.3.21" srcPort=26807 dstPort=443 proto="TCP" action="accept" info="blablabla"

It seems the MSGID is only extracted if the message contains structured content. If no [ exists in the message, no further parsing is happening. However, only in the parsing of the structured message, the MSGID is extracted.
