Simplify logging by sending all logs to stdout

Before this change, the data updater logs were sent to a file set in the configuration of the application, which more or less hid the logs there. Meanwhile the access logs were sent to stdout. Now both kinds of logs are sent to stdout which makes it much easier for the programs hosting mat to read and parse the logs. Close #63.
