This is mostly motivated by some long-running build tests triggered in refkit where better output handling would be very desirable. I had this idea already before Leonardo proposed to change the runCmd() defaults, but as that's now a hot topic, it seemed like a good time to actually implement it.
The result.error encoding fix is something that Leonardo also had in his "[OE-core] [PATCH 2/2] selftest/cases: use stderr data when querying for errors" patch. Beware that this patch series conflicts with those patches because that same code is changed and because the current default semantic (joined stdout/stderr) gets explicitly tested.
