Don't use NTO #10

EasyC currently "fixes" motor timeouts by setting the no timeout bit on all motor controllers. This is terrible, and not just because the NXT might brick or something: users are likely to forget to set motor power to 0 at the end, so motors will continue running even after the program is terminated. This will potentially cause severe physical damage.

This is fixed in a hacky way by commit 77291e32a8926c5e99d557aeaab795d9550167a8. I'm leaving it open as it isn't the right fix.
