[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] qemu/x86: add defconfig for serial console usage

[Waldemar Brodkorb]

Developers sometimes work remotely and want to test stuff in Qemu
without having X11 running. For this case an extra defconfig is
useful and does not break existing defconfig.

A config which can be used for both cases might be used instead,
but I see no option to add more gettys via the existing buildroot
variables.
