In format-patch we're either outputting to stdout or to individual files in an output directory (which may be just "./"). Our logic for whether to open a new file for each patch is checked with "!use_stdout", but it is equally correct to check for a non-NULL output_directory. The distinction will matter when we add a new single-stream output in a future patch, when only one of the three methods will want individual files. Let's swap the logic here in preparation.
