Provides a blocking call to read a character from the console using
semihosting.chardev, if specified. This takes some careful command
line options to use stdio successfully as the serial ports, monitor
and semihost all want to use stdio. Here's a sample set of command
line options which share stdio between semihost, monitor and serial
ports:
qemu \
-chardev stdio,mux=on,id=stdio0 \
-serial chardev:stdio0 \
-semihosting-config enable=on,chardev=stdio0 \
-mon chardev=stdio0,mode=readline
This creates a chardev hooked to stdio and then connects all of the
subsystems to it. A shorter mechanism would be good to hear about.

It will be useful for a number of use-cases to be able to re-direct
output to a file like we do with serial output. This does the wiring
to allow us to treat then semihosting console like just another
character output device.

In preparation for having some more common semihosting code let's
excise the current config magic from vl.c into its own file. We shall
later add more conditionals to the build configurations so we can
avoid building this if we don't need it.
