[Csnd-dev] Version always displayed

Subject[Csnd-dev] Version always displayed
Hi

I noticed that since some weeks ago the csound version is always displayed and there is no way to capture that output. It is fine to let it on by default (which results in a double version being output when called under "csound --version"), but at least I would like a flag to disable this (happy to do a PR with that)

I have changed things around to give a cleaner display of compilation info (warnings, errors) and that may have caused what you are observing. Happy to take a PR that fixes your issue without disrupting the current message order.

There already is an undocumented flag "--print_version" which prints version at the end of execution. I propose to either document that flag and disable printing the version by default or to change it to "--suppress_version" to prevent printing the version

I think we could use that flag to print version and exit. We could have another one then to suppress.
