[PATCH 02/14] common: console: add log_dprint to print to file descriptor

It can be useful to dump the log into the file, e.g. when doing an
update from a USB flash drive with no serial peer attached. Board code
could use log_dprint to dump the log onto the drive. Add a function
to facilitate this.
