ui: pushbuffer can now also capture stderr

We need an easy way to capture both stderr and stdout during bundle2 processing
of a remote bundle. This changeset adds simple changes to the `ui` class to make
this possible.

I expect the interface to change in future releases as bundle2 will probably want to
distinguish stdout and stderr. The current change will, however, do for now.
