Patch against -HEAD

Hi,

While is it possible to use several installer targets in a fully unattended
way, distfetch, checksum and distextract targets always use dialog(3) to
display their status.

Find attached a patch proposal to prevent those targets from using dialog(3) if
the "nonInteractive" environment variable is set.

This would simplify scripting the installer, e.g. over SSH, where a TTY is not
always allocated.
