be read with "pmbootstrap log" (output values: "log",
"stdout", "interactive", "background"), so it's easy to
trace what pmbootstrap does.
The exceptions are "tui" (text-based user interface), where
it does not make sense to write to the log file (think of
ncurses UIs, such as "menuconfig") and "pipe" where the
output is written to a pipe for manual asynchronous
consumption by the caller.
When the output is not set to "interactive", "tui",
"background" or "pipe", we kill the process if it does not
output anything for 5 minutes (time can be set with
"pmbootstrap --timeout").
The table below shows all possible values along with
their properties. "wait" indicates that we wait for the
process to complete.
output value | timeout | out to log | out to stdout | wait | pass stdin
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"log" | x | x | | x |

"pipe" | | | | |

destinations above in real time, write to a buffer
and return it as string when the command has
completed. This is not possible when output is
"background", "pipe" or "tui".
:param check: an exception will be raised when the command's return code
is not 0. Set this to False to disable the check. This
parameter can not be used when the output is "background" or
"pipe".
:param sudo: use sudo to kill the process when it hits the timeout.

* subprocess.Popen instance (output is "background" or "pipe")
