Allow to output statistics to stdout.
This allows intel_gpu_top to run both in statistics-collecting mode (collecting the per-ring statistics in gnuplot-friendly format) and ncurses top-like mode at the same time. It also allows to output the statistics directly to stdout, by using "-o -", so the results can be parsed directly via a popen() parsing. If you are using intel_gpu_top as previously (without any command-line arguments), it should change nothing for you. If you were using its logging facilities (e.g., the '-o file'), note that the logging will keep running, but the detailed top-like interface will be on the screen at the same time.
