allow disabling status checks during builds

export LBMK_STATUS=n

if not set, the status checks and confirmation dialogs
persist. if set to y they persist.

if you set it to n, all checks are disabled, so e.g.:

./build roms all

this would once again build all targets, regardless
of status. this is if you want the old behaviour.
