carlhuda/bundler — Issue #1664: use stderr for warnings and errors

I had a cron job running a task that uses bundler. My typical use is to redirect stdout to a log so stderr stays in place so if there is a problem, cron will email me the output.

However, I missed a broken cron job because the error message about a missing gem was sent to standard out.

I'd like to propose that warnings and errors should go to stderr.

Thanks
