Description

Currently, each file processing is logged by ConsoleStartingFile and ConsoleFinishedFile, which produces

========== Linting <path to file>.fs ==========
========== Finished: 0 warnings ==========

This pollutes the Visual Studio output and makes results less readable.
I suggest removing this output when the MSBuild format is specified.

Research direction

Locate the code that emits ConsoleStartingFile and ConsoleFinishedFile, then trace how the MSBuild format is selected. Verify that per-file start and finish messages are omitted for MSBuild output while remaining available for other formats.
