The quiet flag does not suppress any output #52

Expected Behavior

I expect the Generating BTC Address line to not show up when the -q flag is passed.

./result/bin/vanitygen++ -C BTC -z -q 1

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install using nix-build: 
    
FROM nixos/nix:2.12.0

RUN git clone https://github.com/10gic/vanitygen-plusplus.git \ && cd vanitygen-plusplus \ && git checkout c072eb57c68381c049ff915416bba8d3044f6073 \ && nix-build



2. Execute `./result/bin/vanitygen++ -C BTC -q 1`

## Context (Environment)

I would like to transmit the command output using *socat* so that I can use the results of this excellent program in my web application with minimal post processing required.

The purpose of option -q is not to suppress output, but to reduce unnecessary output. You can redirect stdout/stderr if you don't want any output. For example, /result/bin/vanitygen++ -C BTC 1Love 2>/dev/null 1>/dev/null
