Instead of automatically redirecting STDOUT and STDERR to NUL, allow the user to pass a file name as an argument to
Daemon.new. If present, STDOUT and STDERR will then be redirected to that handle in append mode. It would be up to the
user to properly close the handle in the service_stop method.

Come to think of it, we probably shouldn't be closing stdin if
it's an interactive service.

Actually, maybe it would be easier to allow arguments to the
mainloop method, with options for each handle like so:

MyDaemon.mainloop(
   :stderr => "C:/errors.log",
   :stdout => "C:/output.log"
   :stdin  => nil
)

I think we could automatically close the handles in the service_stop
method, too. Just look for the appropriate instance variables
and see if they're set.
