[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] pkg-infra: make timing of steps optional

[Yann E. MORIN]

Danomi, All,

On 2014-09-12 23:14 -0400, Danomi Manchego spake thusly:
> Commit 17d4eb1e0261793a9f89e4a2253602c7ab926d2e added a hook to log timing
> of steps to a build-time.log file, which provides data for the "graph-build"
> target for examining build time stats.  If one uses buildroot on a daily
> basis as part of a build system, then its conceivable that there might be
> long periods of time between "make clean" ops.  So the log file continues
> to grow.  This patch makes the accumulation of the timing data optional, to
> avoid having a silent endlessly growing log in the build directory.

Well, it is ever growing, indeed, but its size is not that much, when
compared to the other generated artifacts:

    $ du -hs output
    1.7G    .
    $ ls -lh output/build/build-time.log
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 ymorin ymorin 33K Sep 14 23:55 output/build/build-time.log

But OK on principle. See a comment below...

Please use positive logic:

    ifeq ($(BR2_GATHER_BUILD_TIME_STATS),y)
