[aws-ecr-assets] DockerImageAsset: Suppress docker build output

[nikolic-milan]

Describe the feature

I am using ecr_assets.DockerImageAsset to build a docker image from a Dockerfile. I would like a way to suppress the output of this. The output from docker interferes with the normal out of CDK, below example of how it looks. Ugly and more importantly confusing.

It would be nice, if either one could disable it, our somehow guarantee that they don't interfere, build the image and then once done and all the logs are out, start with the cdk output.

Use Case

I just think it would be better if one could suppress the output and just have the regular CDK output. It's going to be easier when debugging, and if I need to debug the build image process I could temporarily remove the flag.

Proposed Solution

docker build has a flag that suppresses outputs, -q --quite. A solution similar to how cache_disabled is implemented.
An optional boolean parameter that adds -q flag to the docker build command.

Makes sense for me. Adding this as a p2 feature request and we welcome the pull requests.

Any update on this feature? My users are confused during cdk deploy because the verbose docker output pushes the y/n user input request out of the window, so they think the deployment is hanging.
