and one which isn't. The latter is now used for ttyEcfg, enabling the
VT-switching ioctls to work on it. (This allows Linux X servers to work when
/emul/linux/dev/tty0 is linked to /dev/ttyEcfg.)
WSDISPLAY_DEFAULTSCREENS or 0 if it's not defined) and use it instead
of WSDISPLAY_DEFAULTSCREENS as approptiate, so that number of screens
added on bootup is patchable
move printing of info about added screen into separate routine and
print just one message for all screens added in wsdisplay_common_attach(),
such as:
wsdisplay0: screen 1-7 added (80x25, vt100 emulation)

will cause any kernel which includes wsdisplay but not wsmux explicitly
to fail to link, but at least those of us with multiple wsdisplays on
a single machine can build kernels again.

Now console keyboard and display are connected at autoconfiguration time,
when the last of them is found. Other keyboards / displays remain
unconnected until a new ioctl (WSDISPLAYIO_SETKEYBOARD) is called.

(For INSTALL kernels, WSDISPLAY_DEFAULTSCREENS can be defined which
sets up that many screens with default parameters.)

from M. Drochner, modified to call output routine once with each
contiguous chunk when the ring buffer wraps around.

ttwrite queues data for us in OBUFSIZ chunks. If we only consume
OBUFSIZ-1 bytes per call to wsdisplaystart(), we're *guaranteed* to
fall behind when given maximum-sized reads (which will defer
processing the leftovers until ttrstrt gets called, after a timeout)
Note that OBUFSIZ*4 may be overkill; OBUFSIZ*3 may be sufficient to
get maximal performance; OBUFSIZ*2 resulted in only about a 2.5x
performance improvement, but it's 2am and I've done enough tweaking
for the night.
1. If the current screen becomes invalid (ie no focus anymore), always
set the keyboard to translating mode. Otherwise, we could get stuck
because the command keystokes don't come through.
2. Catch errors in attaching to a process (X server) - For this,
implement a callback mechanism similar to the detach case. Add an
argument to report an errno via callback.
