Right now there are various drivers that try to use tty->count to know when
they get the final close. Aristeau Rozanski showed while debugging the vt
sysfs race that this isn't entirely safe.

Instead of driver side tricks to work around this introduce a shutdown which
is called when the tty is being destructed. This also means that the shutdown
method is tied into the refcounting.

Use this to rework the console close/sysfs logic.

Remove lots of special case code from the tty core code. The pty code can now
have a shutdown() method that replaces the special case hackery in the tree
free up paths.
