Excessive logging to disk

[sidewinder12s]

It appears by default nidhogg (or at least the uswitch version, we haven't had time to migrate to this new repo) is logging everything to disk instead of stdout and/or provides no way to disable that behavior.

This ends up side tracking our normal log rotation behavior for containers.

@sidewinder12s did you get a chance to test/reproduce using this repo ? As far as I can tell I didn't see logs written to disk anymore... but happy to look into it if needed!

issue stale / can't reproduce, feel free to chime in @sidewinder12s with more details if still happening
