vm: Allow to use 'serial' or 'virtio' type consoles

This introduces the optional capability of using 'serial' type
consoles for VMs.
Using a serial console is supported by systems like FreeBSD which
do not yet have virtio character device drivers. Also it is easier
for most administrators to configure, since they quite often know
the required configurations for linux systems to configure the serial
device parameters on the kernel commandline and in the systems settings.

This patch introduces a way too keep backwards compatibility and only
uses 'serial' type consoles when explicitly told so.
