bitbake: fetch2: implement progress support
Implement progress reporting support specifically for the fetchers. For fetch tasks we don't necessarily know which fetcher will be used (we might initially be fetching a git:// URI, but if we instead download a mirror tarball we may fetch that over http using wget). These programs also have different abilities as far as reporting progress goes (e.g. wget gives us percentage complete and rate, git gives this some of the time depending on what stage it's at). Additionally we filter out the progress output before it makes it to the logs, in order to prevent the logs filling up with junk. At the moment this is only implemented for the wget and git fetchers since they are the most commonly used (and svn doesn't seem to support any kind of progress output, at least not without doing a relatively expensive remote file listing first). Line changes such as the ones you get in git's output as it progresses don't make it to the log files, you only get the final state of the line so the logs aren't filled with progress information that's useless after the fact. Part of the implementation for [YOCTO #5383].
