[Bug 1692188] [NEW] journalctl --vacuum* ignores --quiet

Public bug reported:

I am clearing the journal per cron using `journalctl  --vacuum-time=1d
--quiet`. Unfortunately the `--quiet` is ignored, and the journalctl
always outputs something like `Vacuuming done…`. This results in cron
sending me an email, and I don’t like that.

I think that `--quiet` should suppress normal output of `journalctl
--vacuum-time=1d`.
