[PATCH] fmt: disable buiding the tests

[PATCH] fmt: disable buiding the tests

[Ross Burton]

We don't run or install the tests so there's limited value in building
them, and one of the tests is currently failing to build in fmt-native
on ubuntu 20.04 systems, presumably due the g++ 9.4 being old.

Filed upstream as https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt/issues/4313.

Re: [OE-core] [PATCH] fmt: disable buiding the tests

[Ross Burton]

I retract this, the problem has now been fixed upstream and there is some value on building the tests even if we don’t run them.  I shall backport the fix instead.
