"g.proj -jf ..." writes the projection information to stdout.
grass.read_command() captures data written to the program's stdout and
returns it as a string.

Passing stderr=... will redirect messages and warnings which would
otherwise have gone to e.g. the terminal. It won't affect the passing
of the projection information to the Python script.
