For all these "xl console" changes (affecting xl_console.c and
xl_cmdtable.c), I think we could safely get rid of the "#ifdef
CONFIG_VUART_CONSOLE" and always build the code for vuart, given how
small it is.

If a domain doesn't have a vuart (for any reasons, including that Xen
was not built with vuart support) it won't find any and exit anyway.
