Print a startup or shutdown error once, without fx's event log (closes #359)
check / check (push) Waiting to run

pixad builds its fx app with fx.NopLogger and runs start, wait and stop
itself, so that it can print a start or stop error to stderr once.
dig.RootCause strips the frames fx and dig wrap around the error, which
leaves the line that names the setting. The exit status is as before.

Two tests run runApp on a small fx app. A stop hook that fails has its
error printed once, with exit status 1. A shutdown request's exit code
is returned.
