2724b1806a monitor: Improve mux'ed console experience (Jan Kiszka)
Up to now, you never really knew if you already switched the console
after pressing CTRL-A C or if you mistyped it again. This patch
clarifies the situation by providing a prompt in a new line and
injecting a linebreak when switching away again. For this purpose, the
two events CHR_EVENT_MUX_IN and CHR_EVENT_MUX_OUT are introduced and
distributed on focus switches.

4c36ba3235 monitor: Introduce ReadLineState (Jan Kiszka)
As another step towards decoupled monitor terminals encapsulate the
state of the readline processor in a separate data structure called
ReadLineState and adapt all interfaces appropriately. For now the
monitor continues to instantiate just a single readline state.

376253ece4 monitor: Rework API (Jan Kiszka)
Refactor the monitor API and prepare it for decoupled terminals:
term_print functions are renamed to monitor_* and all monitor services
gain a new parameter (mon) that will once refer to the monitor instance
the output is supposed to appear on. However, the argument remains
unused for now. All monitor command callbacks are also extended by a mon
parameter so that command handlers are able to pass an appropriate
reference to monitor output services.

For the case that monitor outputs so far happen without clearly
identifiable context, the global variable cur_mon is introduced that
shall once provide a pointer either to the current active monitor (while
processing commands) or to the default one. On the mid or long term,
those use case will be obsoleted so that this variable can be removed
again.

Due to the broad usage of the monitor interface, this patch mostly deals
with converting users of the monitor API. A few of them are already
extended to pass 'mon' from the command handler further down to internal
functions that invoke monitor_printf.

At this chance, monitor-related prototypes are moved from console.h to
a new monitor.h. The same is done for the readline API.
