[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] sanity.bbclass: Don't fatal() when trying to dump environment.

It is distressing when bitbake -e can't run due to sanity check
failures, because the solution often involves figuring out what
configuration file are being read and what values they are setting.
Solution: Don't do that. If the datasmart object reports that
tracking is enabled, emit an error() but not a fatal(), and also
warn the user that things may be badly broken.

This depends on a change to bitbake (adding the isTracking() method).
