[Bug 213446] Configurable verbose build output

--- Comment #7 from lightside <lightside at gmx.com> ---
I contacted with core@ (and some other port's developers, including jbeich@,
which email probably doesn't work, as stated in his comments currently) about
this PR, where I included related links.

I shared some concerns:
- Increased I/O usage in console
- Hard to find a warning messages, especially for CMake based projects, like
LLVM/Clang, where verbose build output disables colored output, one line build
messages, with duplicate for warning messages. This also may be related to the
size of the console buffer, where compact build output is more lightweight on
this.
- There are people who use regular make, ports-mgmt/portmaster,
ports-mgmt/synth, etc. and not just ports-mgmt/poudriere, where verbose output
was enabled, because of BATCH=yes define.

If there are concerns about NO_VERBOSE_BUILD usage inside Makefile(s), there is
a possibility to move description of it to "special behavior" place:
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/Mk/bsd.port.mk?revision=421635&view=markup#l981

Also, I didn't ask to apply related patches for other ports, but may use
NO_VERBOSE_BUILD check for my (private) ports.

I'm not going to "play" close/open PR "games".
