[PATCH] s390/console: enable dummy console for vt

To enable the virtual terminal layer with virtio-gpu, we need to
provide the dummy console. This console is hidden behind CONFIG_IOMEM
via the graphics support. Instead of fully enabling the graphic
drivers lets just provide a Kconfig option for the dummy console.

New version: instead of moving around the graphic and console stuff,
let's just keep an s390 specific variant of CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE
