Output generated using libutil's util_fmt_*() functions contains
meta-data such as hostname and time of invocation. When writing test
cases that compare expected and actual tool output, this run-time
variable information needs to be filtered out, resulting in increased
complexity.
To address this, add a global option to suppress meta-data output via
environment variable FMT_NOMETA. If set to '1', no meta-data will be
generated.
Example:
$ FMT_NOMETA=1 chpstat --format json
