[Buildroot] [PATCH 3/5 v3] package/openrc: add support for spawning getty

From: Michał Łyszczek <michal.lyszczek at bofc.pl>

We install a template getty service, and we 'instanciate' it in the
default runlevel, using the configured tty.

Ideally, packages that provide a getty program would be responsible for
installing the corresponding service file. However, to keep consistency
with the existing init systems (busybox, systemd, and sysv), we do do
provide it from the openrc package itself.

OpenrRC only acts on the files in a runlevel sub-directory, but the
documentation [0] actually suggests that the instance symlink be done
in init.d, and then again symlinked into the actual runlevel
sub-directory. So, we abide by the rules.

Also, to be noted, the getty service file is installed without ensuring
that a getty command is available. This again is not unlike other init
systems, sysvinit and busybox, which behave the same.
