Subject: [PATCH 1/2] clint.py: don't print `--help` output to stderr and exit
 1

a) It's not an error
b) It requires manual redirection of stderr into stdout ('2>&1') in
   order to be viewed with a pager, which it warrants given how long the
   help message is.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] cmake: Make `make lint` less verbose

It unnecessarily complicates spotting linter errors, as they're usually
surrounded by a bunch of lines saying "Done processing ... ".
