The consoles ("sclpconsole" and "sclplmconsole") can only be configured
with "-device" and "-chardev" so far. Other machines use the convenience
option "-serial" to configure the default consoles, even for virtual
consoles like spapr-vty on the pseries machine. So let's support this
option on s390x, too. This way we can easily enable the serial console
here again with "-nodefaults", for example:
qemu-system-s390x -no-shutdown -nographic -nodefaults -serial mon:stdio
... which is way shorter than typing:
qemu-system-s390x -no-shutdown -nographic -nodefaults \
-chardev stdio,id=c1,mux=on -device sclpconsole,chardev=c1 \
-mon chardev=c1
The -serial parameter can also be used if you only want to see the QEMU
monitor on stdio without using -nodefaults, but not the console output.
That's something that is pretty impossible with the current code today:
qemu-system-s390x -no-shutdown -nographic -serial none
While we're at it, this patch also maps the second -serial option to the
"sclplmconsole", so that there is now an easy way to configure this second
console on s390x, too, for example:
qemu-system-s390x -no-shutdown -nographic -serial null -serial mon:stdio
Additionally, the new code is also smaller than the old one and we have
less s390x-specific code in vl.c :-)
I've also checked that migration still works as expected by migrating
a guest with console output back and forth between a qemu-system-s390x
that has this patch and an instance without this patch.
