Allow Hob to run with sanity checks disabled

Currently sanity check failures prevent Hob from launching, however we want users to be able to change the various sanity failure causing settings - such as proxy configuration - from the GUI.

This change and a related set of changes to BitBake allow Hob to start with the sanity checks disabled and enable them once the GUI is in place to a) report errors and b) affect settings.

In tandem with an BitBake change fixes [YOCTO #2361].

Regards,

Joshua

It's useful for Hob to be able to disable the sanity checks completely without marking them as passed so that the user can get into the GUI to configure their settings, etc.

Add a variable, DISABLE_SANITY_CHECKS, to do so.

This enables us to use the GUI to change any settings which might cause sanity checks to fail, such as the proxy configuration.
