- hw.usb.ucom.cons_unit is now split into
hw.usb.ucom.cons_unit/...cons_subunit.
Note: The tunable/sysctl hw.usb.ucom.cons_unit needs to be reviewed if
a) a console was defined a USB serial devices, and a USB device with
more than 1 subunit is present, and this device is attached before the
device functioning as a console
or
b) a console was defined on a USB device with more than 1 subunit

Giant was only used here to lock down a bit mask of allocated unit
numbers. Change the code to use its own mutex.

I don't want people to override the mutex when allocating a TTY. It has
to be there, to keep drivers like syscons happy. So I'm creating a
tty_alloc_mutex() which can be used in those cases. tty_alloc_mutex()
should eventually be removed.
The advantage of this approach, is that we can just remove a function,
without breaking the regular API in the future.
