For sandbox we have a fallback console which is used very early during
U-Boot, before serial drivers are available. Rather than try to guess
when to switch to the real one, add a flag so we can be sure. This makes
sure that sandbox can always output a panic() message, for example, and
avoids silent failure (which is very annoying in sandbox).
