We encountered SIGSEGV when running Python test `python/ray/tests/test_failure_2.py::test_list_named_actors_timeout`. The stack is:

The root cause is that when loading `_raylet.so`, `static DelayManager _delay_manager` is initialized and `RAY_LOG(ERROR) << "RAY_testing_asio_delay_us is set to " << delay_env;` is executed. However, the static variables declared in `logging.cc` are not initialized yet (in this case, `std::string RayLog::logger_name_ = "ray_log_sink"`).

It's better not to rely on the initialization order of static variables in different compilation units because it's not guaranteed. I propose to change all `RAY_LOG`s to `std::cerr` in `DelayManager::Init()`.

The crash happens in Ant's internal codebase. Not sure why this test case passes in the community version though.

BTW, I've tried different approaches:

1. Using a static local variable in `get_delay_us` and remove the global variable. This doesn't work because `init()` needs to access the variable as well.
2. Defining the global variable as type `std::unique_ptr<DelayManager>` and initialize it in `get_delay_us`. This works but it requires a lock to be thread-safe.
