bitbake: event/server: Add _uiready flag to handle missing error messages

If you start and suspend a bitbake execution so the bitbake lock is held,
then try and run "bitbake -w '' X", you will see bitbake return an error exit
code but print no message about what happened at all.

The reason is that the -w option creates a "UI" which swallows the messages. The
code which handles this exit failure mode thinks a UI has printed the messages
and therefore doesn't do so.

This adds in an extra parameter to the UI registration code so that we
can figure out whether its a primary UI or not and base decisions on whether
to display information on that instead. This fixes the error shown above and
some bizarre failures on the Yocto Project Autobuilder.
