#3901: Parsable output for Thandy

In order to make it easier for an external application to know what Thandy
is saying, there should be a switch in the Thandy client to make the
output uniform.
I have in mind something along the lines of:
One message per line with the following format:
<id> :: <msg>
Where:
<id> is arbitrary number id to easily recognize the message we are dealing
with. For example: 1: error, 2: updates available, 3: updates downloaded,
4: download progress, 5: start download, 6: available packages for update,
etc
<msg> is a verbose message, or the bytes downloaded if it's a message with
id=4.
If this sounds like a good idea I'd draft a more formal spec for it.
