This patch migrates virtio-console to the qdev infrastructure and
creates a new virtio-serial bus on which multiple ports are exposed as
devices. The bulk of the code now resides in a new file with
virtio-console.c being just a simple qdev device.
This interface enables spawning of multiple

No, the important thing is that we can detect somehow that multiport
virtio console is possible for some random version of qemu
