tests: redirect stderr to stdout for iotests

The python I/O tests helper for running qemu-img/qemu-io
setup stdout to be captured to a pipe, but left stderr
untouched. As a result, if something failed in qemu-img/
qemu-io, data written to stderr would get output directly
and not line up with data on the test stdout due to
buffering.  If we explicitly redirect stderr to the same
pipe as stdout, things are much clearer when they go
wrong.
