Subject: [PATCH] main: redirect panics to /tmp/gocryptfs_panic.NNNN

Redirect stdout and stderr to /tmp/gocryptfs_paniclog.NNNNNN
instead of closing them so users have a chance to get the
backtrace on a panic.

This only applies if "-nosyslog" is NOT set. Panics will
go to terminal as usual if it is.
