debug output

Greetings,
Presently debug output in bogofilter, bogolexer, and bogoutil is controlled
by a group of DEBUG_name macros. This is a good thing as debugging output
for various portions of the programs can be turned on by command line switches.
What is _not_ good is that some program sections print their debugging
output to stdout and some print to stderr. I have added a new variable
"FILE *dbgout" to provide a uniform destination for debug output. It is
initialized during program startup.
Having a single variable like this makes it easy for a developer to change
the destination of the output from stderr to stdout, if so desired.
David
