Lets the client know beforehand if stdout/stderr redirection via nxlink should be initialized.

This introduces a breaking change in the nxlink protocol, which means old nxlink won't work with new hbmenu/homebrew and viceversa, causing major confusion. Perhaps it could be reengineered to be backwards/forwards compatible? The various **link programs we supply need a major overhaul/unification anyway.
