Add 'maxqdepth' as an option to tty character devices.

From: "John V. Baboval" <john.baboval@virtualcomputer.com>

This parameter will cause writes to tty backed chardevs to return
-EAGAIN if the backing tty has buffered more than the specified
number of characters. When data is sent, the TIOCOUTQ ioctl is invoked
to determine the current TTY output buffer depth.

Background:

Some devices use DTR/DSR as flow control. (eg. Check/Receipt
printers with some POS software). When the device de-asserts
DTR, the guest OS notifies the application and new data is blocked.
When running on a QEMU serial port backed by a TTY, though the guest
stops transmitting, all the characters in the TTY output buffer are
still sent. The device buffer overflows and data is lost. In this
case the user could set maxqdepth=1.

Hmm. I seem to have screwed up the "In-Reply-To" on this one. Sorry 
about that.
