Switch default console tty from /dev/console to /dev/constty

With this switch processes (such as xconsole) can open /dev/console
without breaking login on the text or serial console. This can be
trivially triggered by enabling xdm in rc.conf and hitting
Ctrl+Alt+F1 or equivalent once booted.

The changes:
- Add entry for /dev/console or /dev/constty if missing
- If a port's had /dev/console 'on' switch it off and enable /dev/constty
- If a port did not have /dev/console 'on', leave /dev/constty off

Some ports had /dev/console off and /dev/ttyE0 enabled, presumably to
avoid just this issue. It may make sense to adjust these also (but not
in this pass)

Change foo*) case patterns to foo[0-9]*) in MD MAKEDEV.conf files,

as was done earlier today for the MI MAKEDEV.tmpl.  There are
also a few instances of slightly different changes in the
case patterns.

Add support for the Extensible MIPS ("eMIPS") platform. The

NetBSD/emips port runs on Xilinx and Beecube FPGA systems and the
Giano system simulator.

eMIPS is a platform developed at Microsoft Research for researching
reconfigurable computing.  eMIPS allows dynamic loading and scheduling
of application-specific circuits for the purpose of accelerating
computations based on the current workload.

NetBSD eMIPS support for NetBSD 4.x was written at Microsoft Research
by Alessandro Forin and Neil Pittman.  Microsoft Corporation has
donated full copyright to The NetBSD Foundation.

Platform support for eMIPS is the first part of Microsoft's
contribution.  The second part includes the hardware accelerator
framework and will be proposed on tech-kern soon.
