. also implement some netbsd-style tty ioctls
. also implement SIGINFO
. also import netbsd stty
. rename keymap minix CMIN (for ctrl+minus on numeric keypad)
to CNMIN; to keep unchanged control character default CMIN in
new <sys/ttydefaults.h>
. convert CS[5678] logic in rs232 driver to explicit setting of LC
bits

This commit separates the low-level keyboard driver from TTY, putting
it in a separate driver (PCKBD). The commit also separates management
of raw input devices from TTY, and puts it in a separate server
(INPUT). All keyboard and mouse input from hardware is sent by drivers
to the INPUT server, which either sends it to a process that has
opened a raw input device, or otherwise forwards it to TTY for
standard processing.
Design by Dirk Vogt. Prototype by Uli Kastlunger.
Additional changes made to the prototype:
- the event communication is now based on USB HID codes; all input
drivers have to use USB codes to describe events;
- all TTY keymaps have been converted to USB format, with the effect
that a single keymap covers all keys; there is no (static) escaped
keymap anymore;
- further keymap tweaks now allow remapping of literally all keys;
- input device renumbering and protocol rewrite;
- INPUT server rewrite, with added support for cancel and select;
- PCKBD reimplementation, including PC/AT-to-USB translation;
- support for manipulating keyboard LEDs has been added;
- keyboard and mouse multiplexer devices have been added to INPUT,
primarily so that an X server need only open two devices;
- a new "libinputdriver" library abstracts away protocol details from
input drivers, and should be used by all future input drivers;
- both INPUT and PCKBD can be restarted;
- TTY is now scheduled by KERNEL, so that it won't be punished for
running a lot; without this, simply running "yes" on the console
kills the system;
- the KIOCBELL IOCTL has been moved to /dev/console;
- support for the SCANCODES termios setting has been removed;
- obsolete keymap compression has been removed;
- the obsolete Olivetti M24 keymap has been removed.

- writing to a PTY master side blocks if there is not already a
blocked reader on the slave side, and select now reflects this;
- internally, TTY now uses a test based on "caller != NONE" rather
than "grant != GRANT_INVALID" to identify whether a call is
currently ongoing;
- "offset" fields have been removed as they equal the corresponding
"cum" fields;
- improved variable typing and function naming here and there;
- various other small fixes.

- change all sync char drivers into async drivers;
- retire support for the sync protocol in libchardev;
- remove async dev style, as this is now the default;
- remove dev_status from VFS;
- clean up now-unused protocol messages.

. ignore interrupt (stop interrupt check loop) if
interrupt bit not set; limit loop too
. mask off other bits when testing bits in the status register
. this fixes rs232 output that would otherwise never get re-triggered
as too many bits were set in the status byte to match the
possibilities.

.Split TTY in order to support both x86 and ARM.
.Add support for the TI 16750 UARTs on OMAP35x.
.Various other improvements:
.Kernel messages are printed using generic terminal write
functions. That is, they are no longer directly displayed
on the console.
.The console can now be displayed on any terminal. This
is configured by the "console={tty00,tty01,ttyc2,ttyc3,ttyc4}"
boot variable -- basically any valid /dev/tty* terminal.
.Cutify kernel messages with colors. Configured by
"kernelclr={1,2,3,4,5,6,7}" boot variable.
