mock stdout and stderr

**Usage:**

```js
const {stdout, stderr} = require('stdout-stderr')

stdout.start()                                // start mocking stdout
console.log('writing to stdout')              // this will not be displayed
stdout.stop()                                 // stop mocking stdout
assert(stdout.output === 'writing to stdout') // view the output


/* options */
stdout.stripColor = false // disable automatic ansi code stripping
stdout.print = true       // also output to screen
```

This uses the [debug](https://npm.im/debug) module so you can also see the output by setting `DEBUG=stdout|stderr|*`.
