For -Tlint, put parser messages on stdout instead of stderr.
Originally, naddy@ requested this in 2011 (or maybe even earlier). It was discussed with joerg@, kristaps@, naddy@, and espie@ in 2011, and everybody agreed in principle, but it was postponed because kristaps@ wanted to do some cleanup of the message system first. Meanwhile, message infrastructure was improved about a dozen times... This makes long, tedious commands like "mandoc -Tlint *.1 2>&1 | less" unnecessary and allows simple ones like "man -l -Tlint *.1".
