Replace terminal UI with a more readable logger when src actions exec is run in verbose mode

Warren Gifford requested to merge better-verbose into master

Created by: mrnugget

When src action exec previously ran in verbose-mode with the -v flag, it looked like this:

old_verbose

With the changes in this PR it looks like this:

new_logger

Please note: I didn't focus on the details (such as colors, exact words in message, etc). The goal was to untangle the logging from the actionExecutor and the terminal UI, while keeping the behavior in place:

  • In verbose mode, repo-specific log messages are sent to standard error and to a repo-specific log file
  • When not in verbose mode, repo-specific log messages are only sent to repo-specific log file
  • Log files are cleaned up if not -keep-logs flag is given or the repo didn't produce an error

This fixes #119 (closed)
