Show a logout button if a member is logged in

This code example runs on masterpage.js and relies on a logout button, which is hidden when the page loads.

When the page loads, if loggedIn() returns true, the logout button is displayed. Additionally, if a member logs in after the page loads, the button is displayed in response to the login event.
