Docs: printk: add 'console=null|""' to admin/kernel-parameters
Tell about 'console=null|""' and how to use it. It can be helpful to set (enable) CONFIG_NULL_TTY so that the ttynull driver is available. This avoids problems with stdin/stdout/stderr of the init process. Howevere, CONFIG_NULL_TTY cannot be enabled by default because it can be used by mistake, see the commit a91bd622 ("Revert "init/console: Use ttynull as a fallback when there is no console"").
