[PATCH] tty: serial: meson: enable console as module

Enable serial driver to be built as a module.  To do so, init the
console support on driver/module load instead of using
console_initcall().

Yes, I'm well aware that having the serial console as a module makes
devices hard to debug, so I'm not changing any default behavior.  The
goal is just to enable building as a module for environments where
serial debug is not available or needed.
