Fix debugging-log documentation errors.

ART has never supported log.redirect-stdio.

Don't imply that System.out and System.err go to /dev/null.

<h2 id="viewingStd">Viewing stdout and stderr</h2>
<p>By default, the Android system sends <code>stdout</code> and <code>stderr</code>
(<code>System.out</code> and <code>System.err</code>) output to <code>/dev/null</code>. In
processes that run the Dalvik VM, you can have the system write a copy of the output to the log
file. In this case, the system writes the messages to the log using the log tags
<code>stdout</code> and <code>stderr</code>, both with priority <code>I</code>.</p>
<p>To route the output in this way, you stop a running emulator/device instance and then use the
shell command <code>setprop</code> to enable the redirection of output. Here's how you do it:</p>
<pre>
$ adb shell stop
$ adb shell setprop log.redirect-stdio true
$ adb shell start
</pre>
<p>The system retains this setting until you terminate the emulator/device instance. To use the
setting as a default on the emulator/device instance, you can add an entry to
<code>/data/local.prop</code> on the device.</p>
output to <code>/dev/null</code>. (The Java <code>System.out</code> and <code>System.err</code>
streams go to the log.)
