When building the documentation, a lot of text is output, meaning that any warnings can be missed in all the text. Unfortunately, ninja merges both stderr and stdout of all tasks so one cannot just redirect stdout to a separate location as part of the build command to rectify that. Therefore, since we rarely care about the output of the doc builds, only output the stderr text and write the standard output text to a log file in the relevant build folder (i.e. build/doc/guides or build/doc/api)
