039df638d6 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)

As discussed on current-users

c2e51849fc Per discussion on tech-userlevel, finally fix PR 10127:
move all ttyE* entries that use "vt100" emulation to wsvt25 term type.
The terminfo vt220 entry lacked (correctly) a delete key entry, which
was a regression against the netbsd-5 termcap entry. On the other hand,
only a very small number of foreign systems lacks support for wsvt25
nowadays.

3388ad407f Add a constty entry, marked 'off', with otherwise the same settings
as the console. Now when coming up in single user mode the tset in
/.profile can set the terminal type correctly.
Note: I believe constty should be 'on' and console 'off', but thats a
separate discussion

0553899e97 remove ad-hok list of pty's from port tty files, and auto-generate it so
that it is consistent, and in the proper order.

e5217087d8 Change 'console' login to use /dev/constty so that its output isn't
stolen by code that requests system messages using TIOCCONS.

ee4a3af175 This should be the final part of moving to 64 PTYs by default. Added
entries for tty{r,s}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,a,b,c,d,e,f} to /etc/ttys.

Thanks to Matthew Green for pointing out the need.
