Description

When using the API: https://docs.rs/rustscan/latest/rustscan/

It prints out to STD:OUT

Preferably we do not do this, instead it should detect whether it's run as the CLI or the library and not print :)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a mechanism to detect whether RustScan is used as a CLI or as a library (e.g., via a configuration flag or environment variable) and conditionally suppress stdout output when used as a library.
