Because we want to reserve @console for going dumpster diving in
/sys/class/tty/console/active and 'console' to mean the literal
/dev/console
This reverts commit 217df432d6.

This patch makes it possible to declare tty's using the magic keyword 'console',
an alias for the already existing '@console' keyword, which automatically detect
valid console(s) from the console=foo kernel command line.

- Refactor code to figure out device so it works for both the built-in
and external getty code paths
- Fix memory leak when user edits an existing tty device
- Replace @console in argument list to external getty

This patch adds a `nologin` flag to the `tty` configuration directive,
making it possible to set up really simple embedded systems with no
login.
Example, put the following line in `/etc/finit.d/getty.conf` to get
a "Please press Enter to ..." prompt before being presented with a
root shell prompt.
tty [12345] @console noclear nologin
Needless to say, this is not very secure, but can be really useful
for developer setups, during board bringup, or similar.

Until now Finit has used mtime to determine if a file has been changed,
or simply touched to request reload, when `initctl reload` is called.
Using mtime for this purpose is a monumentally bad idea since time can
be changed at any point: a user may adjust the time, NTP continously
tunes the clock, and time stamps are stored as the walltime. So if we
compare timestamps against the last time we (booted or) did reload, we
would miss .conf file changes.
This patch replaces the mtime mistake with an inotify watcher for the
following files: /etc/finit.d/*.conf, /etc/finit.d/available/*.conf,
and /etc/finit.conf. All file changes between (bootstraps and) calls
to `initctl reload` are tracked, like the mtime backend it replaces.

This patch extends the existing rlimit implementation to support setting
limits per service, run/task, inetd, and tty.
Use rlimit in /etc/finit.conf to change the global setting, which is
then inherited to each /etc/finit.d/*.conf. For each .conf file the
rlimit is reinitialized to the global finit.conf settings.
Also, add `unlimited` keyword, to replace the now deprecated `infinity`
keyword. The latter is however kept, for compatibility with previous
releases, for the foreseeable future.

All this code did was trigger prctl() to set process name to "console",
which you could use as a simple means of figuring out if a process was
started from the system console.
There are other ways to do this, which Finit should not be involved in.

This patch adds support for a new TTY device keyword `@console` which
auto-detects the system console by reading the SysFS file:
/sys/class/tty/console/active
Embedded systems with one of /dev/ttyAMA0, /tty/ttyMXC0 or the original
/dev/ttyS0, as their active serial console can now instead use a single
line to /etc/finit.d/getty.conf to start the built-in getty on the same
TTY as the kernel already runs on:
tty [12345789] @console 115200 noclear
With no TTY defined Finit will either do nothing (default), or start a
fallback shell if enabled in the configure script.

This patch removes the following very annoying warning for TTY devices
not yet available, i.e. plugged-in to the system.
Loading configuration ............................................................................. [ OK ]
[ 11.097414] finit[1]:tty_register():Incomplete or non-existing TTY device given, cannot register.
[ 11.101457] finit[1]:tty_register():Incomplete or non-existing TTY device given, cannot register.
Mounting filesystems .............................................................................. [ OK ]
Finit will not start a getty (built-in or external) if the TTY does not
exist, but having the configuration enabled makes it possible to do a
simple `initctl reload` to activate a plugged in TTY.

This patch aligns the two tty configuration stanzas, thus clear and wait
are now the default for both.
tty [LVLS] <DEV> [BAUD] [noclear] [nowait] [TERM]
tty [LVLS] <CMD> <ARGS> [noclear] [nowait]

This patch makes it possible to disable the "Please press Enter" prompt
when using an external getty. Simply append `nowait` to the .conf entry
and Finit will spawn the getty immediately.
A future patch will add support for `noclear` as well to external getty,
as well as a change in default (=> `wait`) for the built-in getty.

In commit eec32e2 support for reloading TTY configurations was added.
This patch is a follow-up to that with support for cleaning up and
removing allocated TTYs.

When the TTY fallback mechanism is enabled tty_fallback() prints this
annoying debug message whenever *any* is process is collected by PID 1:
"Not starting fallback (%d) shell, lost pid %d", fallback, lost"
This patch removes it, and a two other useless debug messages.
