Re: [docbook-apps] quite processing output - hiding "computing chunks ..."

The patch makes sense.  But on further investigation, I find that DocBook XSL has two 
top-level params that do the same thing: turn off the chunk filename messages.  We 
have:

$chunk.quietly  (added in 2002 and documented)
$chunker.output.quiet (added in 2005 and not documented)

They are used inconsistently, so I believe the second one was added without knowledge 
of the first.  I'm going to remove $chunker.output.quiet and use $chunk.quietly 
exclusively in the next release.  Since $chunker.output.quiet was not documented, 
removing it should not have a great impact, no?
