rev_info.early_output started out as an unsigned int in cdcefbc97 (Add "--early-output" log flag for interactive GUI use, 2007-11-03), but later it was turned into a single bit in a bit field in cc243c3ce (show: --ignore-missing, 2011-05-18) without explanation, though its users still expect it to be a regular integer type. Consequently, any even number given via '--early-output=<N>' effectively disabled the feature.

Turn it back into an unsigned int, restoring its original data type.
