    ttys - Add 'ifconsole' option to ttys entries
    
    * Add the 'ifconsole' option.  This allows you to construct a line as shown
      below to enable a getty (e.g. on a serial port) only if the tty is the
      system console.
    
        ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"   dialup  on secure ifconsole
    
      The ifconsole option also silently disables any devices which do not
      exist, removing unnecessary console spam.
    
    * Modify libc and init to handle the new flag.
    
    * Modify the nrelease build and ttys defaults to use this option for
      ttyd0, ttyd1, ttyd2, and ttyd3.
    
    * Avoids previously reported issues with system crashes on certain machines
      whos serial ports are not implemented properly without having to fully
      disable the default ttyd* getty feature.  If the serial port isn't the
      console, it won't be enabled.
    
    * Add a sysctl to the kernel which init needs to test whether a tty is the
      console or not.
