Sometimes, it isn't acceptable to log on stdout, because a CLI tool
may be required to return structured output on stdout.
Typically, the stderr channel is reserved for logging in unix, and
this is what glog does by default. I'm not sure why we log to stdout.
To avoid breaking any of our partners who may be depending on the stdout
behavior, this creates a configuration for stderr, but keeps the defaults
with the current behavior.
If we are sure that stderr is acceptable then ideally we would drop this and not log to stdout ever.
