    [POWERPC] Fix console output getting dropped on platforms without udbg_putc
    
    Previously, registering this early console would just result
    in dropping early buffered printk output until a udbg_putc
    was registered.
    
    However, commit 69331af79cf29e26d1231152a172a1a10c2df511
    clears the CON_PRINTBUFFER flag on the main console when a
    CON_BOOT (early) console has been registered, resulting in
    the buffered messages never being displayed to the user.
    
    This fixes the problem by making sure we don't register udbg_console
    on platforms that don't implement udbg_putc.
