[RFC PATCH] gitlab: call ninja directly and reduce build noise

["Alex Bennée" <alex.bennee@linaro.org>]

A significant portion of our CI logs are just enumerating each
successfully built object file. The current widespread versions of
ninja don't have a quiet option so we use NINJA_STATUS to add a fixed
string to the ninja output which we then filter with fgrep. If there
are any errors in the output we get them from the compiler.
