UEFI provides ConIn/ConOut handles for consoles that it supports,
which include the text-video and serial ports. When the serial port
is available, use the UEFI driver instead of direct io-port accesses
to avoid conflicts between the firmware and direct hardware access, as
happens on Hyper-V (Azure) setups.
This change enables efiserialio to be built for efi-amd64 and has
higher order priority vs comconsole, and only uses efiserialio
if the hypervisor is Hyper-V. When efiserialio successfully
probes, it will set efi_comconsole_avail=true which will prevent
comconsole from probing in this setup.
Tested on Hyper-V, ESXi and Azure VMs.
