[PATCH v6 08/12] efi_loader: Disable ANSI output for tests

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Thu Sep 26 23:59:38 CEST 2024


We don't want ANSI characters written in tests since it is a pain to
check the output with ut_assert_nextline() et al.

Provide a way to tests to request that ANSI characters not be sent.

Add a proper function comment while we are here, to encourage others.
