Description of the bug

I observed that 2.11.0 git-cliff outputs to stdout, and outputs nothing to the file despite the configuration output=CHANGELOG.md.

Steps To Reproduce

git clone git@github.com:kobotoolbox/kpi.git repro # or any other repo that has `output` configured in `cliff.toml`.
cd repro

wc CHANGELOG.md # wc: CHANGELOG.md: No such file or directory -> OK
CI=true npx git-cliff@2.10.0
wc CHANGELOG.md #   26498  165699 2248197 CHANGELOG.md -> OK, v2.10 works as expected and output to file.

rm CHANGELOG.md
wc CHANGELOG.md # wc: CHANGELOG.md: No such file or directory -> OK
CI=true npx git-cliff@2.11.0 # fyi, unexpected that it outputs to stdout now
wc CHANGELOG.md # wc: CHANGELOG.md: No such file or directory -> BREAKING CHANGE: v2.11 outputs nothing to the file

Expected behavior

I expect the configuration output=CHANGELOG.md to make git-cliff output the changelog into the said file like it was in v2.10.
