Add silent printer to allow suppressing command echoing #1

Closed piotrmurach closed 8 years ago

Provide option for TTY::Command.new to suppress output logging.

It's probably also worth considering what happens in the common case here. Often these scripts end up running something like 50 commands in a row, including many that don't output anything. I wonder if we could make the output a bit quieter in general? Like only include logging if requested, or if there is actual output to display.

We could investigate different logging levels, or even rely on the Ruby standard logger to implement some of this. Also, we could provide different printer that may just show dot/tick when successful, kind of like rspec does with dots vs documentation formatters.

Added rspec like progress printer.

Added :null printer type which won't output anything, this is as silent as it gets.
