Message:

kernel output devices now suport multiple instances (except ski and sgcn, which respect the same interface, but behave as singletons)
if more than one output device gets initialized, the output is cloned to all of them
get rid of arch_grab_console() and arch_release_console() (output devices can implement a generic "redraw" method, input devices respect the "silent" global variable)
