buildman: Separate out display of warnings and errors
Some boards unfortunately build with warnings and it is useful to be able to easily distinguish the warnings from the errors. Use a simple pattern match to categorise gcc output into warnings and errors, and display each separately. New warnings are shown in magenta (with a w+ prefix) and fixed warnings are shown in yellow with a w- prefix. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
