serial: assert DTR for serial console devices

Some RS-232 devices require DTR to be asserted before they can be used.  DTR
is normally asserted in uart_startup() when the port is opened.  But we don't
actually open serial console ports, so assert DTR when the port is added.

BTW:
earlyprintk and early_uart are hard coded to set DTR/RTS.

rmk says

  The only issue I can think of is the possibility for an attached modem to
  auto-answer or maybe even auto-dial before the system is ready for it to do
  so.  Might have an undesirable cost implication for some running with such a
  setup.

  Apart from that, I can't think of any other side effect of this specific
  patch.
