ui: make status() return a dyn Write, add status_formatter()

When the caller needs a formatter, it's because they're doing
something non-trivial. When the user passed `--quiet` (see upcoming
patch), we should ideally skip doing related work for print the
formatting output. It helps if the `Ui` object doesn't even return a
`Formatter` then, so the caller is forced to handle the quiet case
differently.

Thanks to Yuya for the suggestion.
