Andrew Deason 4db3775c0f tests: Redirect diag() to stdout by default
Currently our perl tests use Test::More, which sends diag() messages
to stderr, including when reporting why a test failed.

Our 'runtests' harness from c-tap-harness discards stderr from test
programs, unless we run in single-test mode (-o). As a result, when we
run tests with 'runtests -v' and a test fails, we can't see any
diagnostic information if the test was using perl's Test::More,
including why a test failed. If the test is written in C using
c-tap-harness bindings, diag() goes to stdout, and this problem
doesn't happen.

To make sure we can see diag() messages from perl tests, change the
default behavior for Test::More to print diag() messages to stdout,
where they will be read by 'runtests' and shown by 'runtests -v'.  The
diag messages are still discarded when running in non-v (and non-o)
mode.
