Allow for disabling port grouping (with something more clear than debug level 2)

Hi dear nmap hackers!

First of all thanks a lot for such a nice tool, it has saved my ass
debugging network issues quite a few times :)

I'm writing you because for some uses port grouping can be problematic
when parsing outputs (specially if more than one group is created).
Initially I was just thinking on patching PortList::isIgnoredState(int
state) on portlist.cc with a simple new option to disable grouping, but
I suppose there are other needs too aside from just enabling/disabling
grouping for all states.

And this is the reason of this e-mail, I have to write this feature, I'd
like it to be merged with nmap and I believe it will be nice if it is of
help to as many users out there. So please send your ideas (and please
CC me as I'm not subscribed to this list).

Sincerely,
klondike
