Add information about kernel console tty to each machine size #628

@simcod

Description

@simcod

Hardware vendors might expose the serial port on different ports. In order to use multiple machine sizes from different vendors in a partition, it should be possible to specify the kernel tty individually for each machine size.

Currently, this information is stored in the partition within the bootconfig. It is used by the kernel of the metal-hammer. Because pixiecore does not know anything about machine sizes, the information need to remain there.

However, while installing the target OS the kernel console tty argument can be retrieved from the metal-api for the used machine type. The partition kernel parameter should be used as default unless otherwise specified within the machine size.
