When the parameter logfile is passed to spawn(), pexpect sends both
stdin and stdout to the logfile and it creates a double echo effect.
One way to avoid the double echo in the logfile would be to disable the
echo on the terminal just after login ("stty -echo"), but double echo of
user and password would remain.
Instead of that, send only the stdout to the logfile using the
logfile_read property.
