    Log to io.Discard if no log file is set.

    Snowflake in Tor Browser has been hanging after surfing for a while.
    (Tor reports "no running bridges".) It only began happening after commit
    12922a232b, which caused snowflake-client not to log to a file by
    default (leaving it to log to its default stderr). What seems to be
    happening is that tor doesn't read from its PT clients' stderr, leaving
    a buffer to fill up that eventually causes a hang.
