terminal.py: Allow devshell/menuconfig on recent gnome-terminal
Recent versions of gnome-terminal does not support non-UTF8 charset: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732127 as a result, devshell and menuconfig tasks silently hang (error found on trace log of 'strace -f -v -s 8192 -e write=2 bitbake -c devshell quilt-native': "Non UTF-8 locale (ANSI_X3.4-1968) is not supported!"). As a workaround, clearing the LC_ALL environment variable so it uses the locale. Once fixed on the gnome-terminal project, this should be removed. Tested on gnome-terminal versions: GNOME Terminal 3.4.1.1 GNOME Terminal 3.14.2 (Default on Ubuntu 15.04) [YOCTO #7791] Signed-off-by: Leonardo Sandoval <leonardo.sandoval.gonzalez@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ross Burton <ross.burton@intel.com>
