ktest: force $buildonly = 1 for 'make_warnings_file' test type
[ Upstream commit 07283c1873a4d0eaa0e822536881bfdaea853910 ]
The test type "make_warnings_file" should have no mandatory configuration
parameters other than the ones required by the "build" test type, because
its purpose is to create a file with build warnings that may or may not be
used by other subsequent tests. Currently, the only way to use it as a
stand-alone test is by setting POWER_CYCLE, CONSOLE, SSH_USER,
BUILD_TARGET, TARGET_IMAGE, REBOOT_TYPE and GRUB_MENU.
