/fb command shall produce a log file the simmilar as /m1 does

New CLI command introduced in v5.1.0.5 full build in background /fb produces the log file in the same way as using the foreground build client.
Would be good that this /fb command would produce the log file in the same manner as /m1 command does now. Means, when we initiate /m1 command in the batch, log file is being produced instantly and progress is logged there. In the meantime /fb command produces log only after build is completed. This is required as sometimes is not quite clear what is happening (if build is ongoing or hanging) when /fb command is initiated.
