Title: virt: virtio_console: support for windows guest testing

Hi guys,

this patchset modifies virtio_console tests to suit booth - linux and windows guests. Also it fixes some virtio_console bugs.

Not all tests are supported under windows, `only linux` tests are marked in default cfg.

Currently it's necessarily to install vio_serialport drivers, python and pywin32 manually. I added a notification when the execution fails about this issue.

During developing of this test I encounter many virito_console bugs. Keep in mind that virito_console almost doesn't work. Virtio_serialport is often uninitialized and reboot is required. It also corrupt data during transfer... (I wonder how virtio_port related SW works with windows - tested on Windows XP + Fedora 17)

Kind regards,
Lukáš Doktor
