logging: set stdout and stderr to None in some cases
For very long processes, we might want to keep stdout and stderr
by default to None.
So no redirection will occur in the child process as explained in:
https://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html
That will result in the child process stdin and stderr to be same
than in common.py and avoid to have the logs blocked during the
child process execution and flushed only when child process terminates.
Since the logs are continously displayed, it allows to easily confirm
that the process is not blocked.
Bug: 133380588
Test: generate iota & Check that the logs are not blocked.
