ubootdriver: optionally strip timestamps

[threexc]

Some U-Boot configurations may prepend timestamps to the beginning of every line during early boot, and at the prompt, e.g.:

|[ 2.397] Failed to get fastboot key config: -19
|[ 2.402] sdh@d4280000: 74 clk wait timeout(100)
|[ 2.405] MMC: no card present
|[ 2.408] mmc_init: -123, time 7
|[ 2.412] Net: RGMII interface
|[ 2.414] eth0: ethernet@cac80000
|[ 2.420] Autoboot in 5 seconds
|=>
|=> [ 4.878]
|=> [ 5.920]
|=> [ 503.743] d
|=> [ 505.712]

Unfortunately, this means that strategies may not behave as expected when trying to run commands, as labgrid's console.expect() function will always find the timestamp in addition to the check strings it sends. Handle this by adding the strip_timestamps boolean option for UBootDriver, which (if enabled) strips any timestamps found prepended to output lines.

Tested this on a MusePi-Pro board, with SpacemiT K1 SoC that has vendor u-boot that spits out u-boot timestamps in unpredictable ways. This series fixes the problem for me. Thanks!

Looks good otherwise.

@jluebbe thanks, should be good to go now.

I guess I still have my alphabetized import change in there, even though the regex has been moved. Would you like me to fix that?

[threexc]

I've pushed one more time, because the commit message for the UBootDriver had strip_timestamp pluralized when the actual setting and docs weren't.

Thanks for merging this!
