When running kunit_tool_test.py, the test_run_raw_output_invalid test prints invalid usage text and error messages to stderr. This happens because the test triggers kunit.main() with an invalid argument, causing argparse to print the usage and exit.
This output is confusing to the user because it looks like a test failure or usage error, even though the test passed successfully. Furthermore, argparse displays 'usage: kunit_tool_test.py run ...', which is misleading since the test script itself does not accept the 'run' command. This patch mocks sys.stderr in the test to suppress this expected error output, making the test execution output cleaner.
