[issue10979] setUpClass exception causes explosion with "-b"

[Michael Foord]

Thanks for finding this Brandon. The same problem probably exists for setupmodule and the teardown variants too.

The issue is that the sys.stdout manipulation is done by result.startTest but setUpClass and setUpModule are executed by the suite outside the normal startTest / stopTest cycle. 

I think the answer is to have the stdout manipulation done in separate result methods (called by stopTest / startTest) that can also be called by the suite around the setup / teardown of class and module.
