Bug Description

We run snapcraft through Jenkins which has the potential of obsurdly blowing up the log thanks to progress and busy indicators.

The download progress when downloading a source is too fine-grained in a logging potential (albeit useful). Should maybe update only every 25% or so.

The busy indication during `snapcraft push` though is madness. Since it updates every second until the autoreview happened, which may be delayed because of a pending manual review, it can spam the log with thousands of needless lines with progress indicating characters. I am currently looking at a ~20MiB log file.
