Reroute the output of stdout to stderr as it is just informative messages, not to be consumed by machines. We want to init submodules from the helper for `submodule update` in a later patch and the stdout output of said helper is consumed by the parts of `submodule update` which are still written in shell. So we have to be careful which messages are on stdout.
