Add the ability for cloud-hypervisor to create, manage and monitor a pty for serial and/or console I/O from a user. The reasoning for having cloud-hypervisor create the ptys is so that clients, libvirt for example, could exit and later re-open the pty without causing I/O issues. If the clients were responsible for creating the pty, when they exit the main pty fd would close and cause cloud-hypervisor to get I/O errors on writes. Ideally the main and subordinate pty fds would be kept in the main vmm's Vm structure. However, because the device manager owns parsing the configuration for the serial and console devices, the information is instead stored in new fields under the DeviceManager structure directly. From there hooking up the main fd is intended to look as close to handling stdin and stdout on the tty as possible (there is some future work ahead for perhaps moving support for the pty into the vmm_sys_utils crate). The main fd is used for reading user input and writing to output of the Vm device. The subordinate fd is used to setup raw mode and it is kept open in order to avoid I/O errors when clients open and close the pty device. The ability to handle multiple inputs as part of this change is intentional. The current code allows serial and console ptys to be created and both be used as input. There was an implementation gap though with the queue_input_bytes needing to be modified so the pty handlers for serial and console could access the methods on the serial and console structures directly. Without this change only a single input source could be processed as the console would switch based on its input type (this is still valid for tty and isn't otherwise modified).
