testutil: Set the environment variable NOLOGBUFFER=1 to have test agent logs go straight to stdout

This is a followup to the testing feature added in #5304.

While it is very nice to have test agent logs to through testing.T.Logf
so that only logs from failed tests are emitted, if a test is hanging or
taking a long time those logs are delayed. In that case setting
NOLOGBUFFER=1 will temporarily redirect them to stdout so you can see
immediate feedback about hangs when running the tests in verbose mode.

One current example of a test where this can be relevant is:

    $ go test ./agent/consul -run 'TestCatalog_ListServices_Stale' -v
