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.
