staging: speakup: add tty-based comms functions
This adds spk_ttyio.c file. It contains a set of functions which implement those methods in spk_synth struct which relate to sending bytes out using serial comms. Implementations in this file perform the same function but using TTY subsystem instead. Currently synths access serial ports, directly poking standard ISA ports by trying to steal them from serial driver. Some ISA cards actually need this way of doing it, but most other synthesizers don't, and can actually work by using the proper TTY subsystem through a new N_SPEAKUP line discipline. So this adds the methods for drivers to switch to accessing serial ports through the TTY subsystem, whenever appropriate.
