Show logs from pack mock server in console output

[canny]

Currently, the logs (e.g., a mismatch error and it's diff) of pact mock server are put in pact-mock-service.log.
It's a bit cumbersome if I need to have a look into some other file once the test fails and I only have partial information in the console output.
Even more cumbersome if the failure is on CI and I don't have a way to directly access the file.

Thanks Kirill. Also worth noting the move to the rust core engine (https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-reference/tree/master/rust) will address this in part, because there is a unified logging infrastructure in place. There are a couple of issues with extracting the provider side which we are working on.
But in the meanwhile, if we can make the Ruby core work then that might be a nice experience.
