PATCH 1/1 knotty: Use non-interactive mode as fallback for dumb terminals

TERM=dumb bitbake X

shows no output fot task status which is suboptimal. Use the non-interactive mode if the terminal doesn't support what we need for interactive mode giving a better user experience. Also print a note to the console to say this has happened.

[YOCTO #8768]
