Cian O'Driscoll 7e58968779 Explicitly name element enable-serial-console
We use an element remove-serial-console in image elements.
Renaming this element to match. Also renaming allows us to use
the serial console in devtest runs.

Start getty on active serial consoles.
With ILO and other remote admin environments, having a serial console can be
useful for debugging and troubleshooting.
For upstart:
If ttyS1 exists, getty will run on that, otherwise on ttyS0.
For systemd:
We dynamically start a getty on any active serial port via udev rules.
