tty: Add a new file /proc/tty/consoles

Add a new file /proc/tty/consoles to be able to determine the registered
system console lines.  If the reading process holds /dev/console open at
the regular standard input stream the active device will be marked by an
asterisk.  Show possible operations and also decode the used flags of
the listed console lines.

To see which character device lines are currently used for the system console
/dev/console, you may simply look into the file /proc/tty/consoles:
> cat /proc/tty/consoles
tty0 -WU (ECp) 4:7
ttyS0 -W- (Ep) 4:64
The columns are:
device name of the device
operations R = can do read operations
W = can do write operations
U = can do unblank
flags E = it is enabled
C = it is prefered console
B = it is primary boot console
p = it is used for printk buffer
b = it is not a TTY but a Braille device
a = it is safe to use when cpu is offline
* = it is standard input of the reading process
major:minor major and minor number of the device separated by a colon
If the reading process holds /dev/console open at the regular standard input
stream the active device will be marked by an asterisk:
> cat /proc/tty/consoles < /dev/console
tty0 -WU (ECp*) 4:7
ttyS0 -W- (Ep) 4:64
> tty
