The motivation for this change is to allow edob to be used with noisy commands, i.e., commands that produce a lot of output, in cases where the output is in general not of interest. However, if the command fails, the output should be shown and appear in build.log.
We do this by simply redirecting the output to a file in $T, and show this file if the command returned a non-zero exit status. We already have a few cases in ::gentoo where such output is simply redirected to /dev/null, hindering post-mortem analysis. Those could be converted to edob with its new behavior.
