bitbake: toaster: disable git remote check to allow for firewalls

Toaster users behind firewalls that block "git" access usually
require developers to add remap rules in their "~/.gitconfig"
to remap GIT accesses to HTTP* access. However, there is a
"git remote" test in Toaster that is not aware of such remaps,
resulting in a false error.

For now, disable this nice-to-have check to support this release,
and re-enable when we can add remapping accommodations for this
test.
