Show errors when running "ankiserverctl.py start" (and re-add info to docs about using "paster") #13

We've recently gotten a number of reports of people trying Anki Server but it not starting and them getting no feedback:

It looks like ankiserverctl.py is routing all output to /dev/null. It should either (1) send something out to the console (maybe stderr?) or (2) log stdout/stderr somewhere. When running with supervisord, both stdout/stderr get logged by it which I find very useful, personally...
