Restrict binary dumping so that by default, binary garbage is not
printed directly to a terminal. Output redicted to files or piped to
other commands should not be affected (as judged by "isatty(ofd)").
A new flag "-a" or "--forcebinary" is included so that users can
override this behavior if necessary.
