serial: 8250: Switch to nbcon console, take 2

Implement the necessary callbacks to switch the 8250 console driver
to perform as an nbcon console.

Add implementations for the nbcon console callbacks:

  ->write_atomic()
  ->write_thread()
  ->device_lock()
  ->device_unlock()

and add CON_NBCON to the initial @flags.

All hardware access in the callbacks is within unsafe sections.
The ->write_atomic() and ->write_thread() callbacks allow safe
handover/takeover per byte and add a preceding newline if they
take over from another context mid-line.

For the ->write_atomic() callback, a new irq_work is used to defer
modem control since it may be called from a context that does not
allow waking up tasks. During suspend/resume the irq_work is not
used as this has been shown to cause suspend problems for some
hardware. Upon resume, any pending modem control is performed.

Note: A new __serial8250_clear_IER() is introduced for direct
clearing of UART_IER during console writing (which will not be
holding the port lock for atomic printing or KDB/KGDB). This
allows restoring a lockdep check to serial8250_clear_IER() in
a follow-up commit.
