Pass the -noecho option to spawn

Is there a reason that dejagnu's local_exec proc doesn't use the
-noecho option for spawning the command?

Every log contains the spawned commands twice because dejagnu prints
it then spawn repeats it (with an annoying \r appended, making copy &
paste from the logs more awkward than it needs to be).

For example:

Executing on build: msgfmt -o fr/LC_MESSAGES/libstdc++.mo
/home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/libstdc++-v3/testsuite/../po/fr.po
(timeout = 300)
spawn -ignore SIGHUP msgfmt -o fr/LC_MESSAGES/libstdc++.mo
/home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/libstdc++-v3/testsuite/../po/fr.po^M
Executing on build: msgfmt -o de/LC_MESSAGES/libstdc++.mo
/home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/libstdc++-v3/testsuite/../po/de.po
(timeout = 300)
spawn -ignore SIGHUP msgfmt -o de/LC_MESSAGES/libstdc++.mo
/home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/libstdc++-v3/testsuite/../po/de.po^M


I find this annoying. Is there any reason not to disable it?

       if { $result == 0 } {
           set result2 0
       } else {


I don't know whether the other spawn command on line 193 should also
use -noecho, I've only patched line 168 locally. With that change, my
logs are half the size and have no annoying carriage returns.
