Consoles created after init_displaystate() (e.g. hotplugged

QOM tree. Extract qemu_console_add_to_qom() and call it from
qemu_console_register() when the display is already initialized.

Coldplugged consoles are not added to the QOM tree when -preconfig is specified because x-exit-preconfig will happen after init_displaystate() but before phase_advance(PHASE_MACHINE_READY). Below is an LLM-written reproduction case:

build/qemu-system-x86_64 \
  -machine q35 -nodefaults -display none -S -preconfig \
  -device bochs-display,id=gfx0 -qmp stdio <<'EOF'
{"execute":"qmp_capabilities"}

EOF
