[PATCH] char nvtty: Network Virtual Terminal support

[Rodolfo Giometti]

A Network Virtual terminal (NVT tty) is a software device consisting
of one halves: a client device, which is identical to a physical
terminal, who, is turn, get connected with a remote server where real
tty devices are located.

These devices are specified by RFC 854 and RFC 2217 and ther name into
the system is /dev/nvttyX (by default you have 4 devices).

By using these devices and a proper compatible server (not included
here but you can use sredird) you can get access to a remote tty
device as the tty device itself was conneted with your local host.
All data and settings are sent and received through the network.

+		The /sys/class/tty/nvttyX/ directory is related to X-th
+		NVT tty device into the system. Each directory will
