Bug/regression in meta.yaml 'build/no_link' handling: overwriting no_link list with boolean

[mwiebe]

conda-build version 2.0.12

The bug is that at https://github.com/conda/conda-build/blob/master/conda_build/build.py#L563 the list gets created:

no_link = m.get_value('build/no_link')

but then the same variable is overwritten with a bool at https://github.com/conda/conda-build/blob/master/conda_build/build.py#L574

no_link = is_no_link(no_link, fi)

so next time around the loop, it gives the traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
