Implement capture_stderr C-API option#2862

As an embeddable library we should try to play nice with our parents resources. It is therefore desirable to have a way to capture messages on stderr. This makes it easier and safer to use libsass in eg. threaded environments. Core errors (mainly memory allocation problems) and dev/debug data is still printed to stderr directly.

Alternate option providing more flexibility for the caller: a warnings callback, which would default to printing the message to stderr? |

Thx @xmo-odoo, that is certainly something I wouldn't be opposed to. Ongoing LibSass 4.0 branch (#3135) already fixes the issue by never directly writing to stderr/stdout if not explicitly requested to. But that branch also complicated error reporting a little by introducing (all optional) ANSI colors, Unicode and line wrapping in the output. Going to close this here as work in this area will certainly not land in any pre 4.0 release. |

Introduces two new functions to the C-API:
