When running a failsafe shell on a console, job control was unavailable,
and ^C did not function correctly.

This change invokes console failsafe shells via `setsid`, making them
session leaders and allowing them to claim controlling terminals, which
makes job control function properly. To support this, the busybox
`setsid` utility is enabled. This has a minimal 149-byte size impact on
a test x86_64 squashfs rootfs image.

^C was causing console failsafe shell itself to exit, and was being
ignored in subprocesses of such shells: it was not possible to ^C out of
a program that would not exit on its own, such as many typical `ping`
invocations. As job control was unavailable, it was not possible to
suspend these subprocesses either, causing a hung program to tie up a
console indefinitely, unless another means to signal the program was
available. This was caused by SIGINT being placed at disposition SIG_IGN
by the shell running preinit, which it did because the console shell was
executed asynchronously with &. That disposition was inherited by the
console shell and its subprocesses, generally causing ^C to have no
effect. In the console shell itself, although SIGINT was ignored, ^C
caused the read loop to return with nothing read, which the shell
"converted" to SIGINT, causing it to exit.

As there is no way in busybox `ash` to reset the disposition of a signal
already ignored at shell entry, and no apparent way to avoid SIGINT
being placed at SIG_IGN when & is used in preinit, an alternative
construct is needed. Now, `start-stop-daemon` is used to start (-S) the
console failsafe shell in the background (-b). This approach does not
alter SIGINT, allowing the console shell to be started with that
signal's handling intact, and normal ^C processing to occur.

busybox `ash` has some behaviors conditional on SHLVL, and while the
console shells ought to run at SHLVL=1, they were not by virtue of being
started by the shell-based preinit system. Additionally, a variety of
detritus was present in the console shell's environment, carried over
from preinit. These conditions are corrected by running the console
shell via `env -i` to clear the environment and establish a minimum and
correct set of environment variables for operation, in the same manner
as `login`. Note that HOME is not explicitly set, because it's addressed
in /etc/profile. This change is duplicated for non-failsafe console
shells when system.@system[0].ttylogin = 0. (`login` starts these shells
when ttylogin = 1 and already behaved correctly. This brings the
ttylogin = 0 case to parity.)

The TERM environment variable from the preinit environment, with value
"linux", would rarely be correct for serial consoles. Now, the preinit
TERM value is preserved (or set to "linux" if unset) only when the
console is /dev/console or /dev/tty[0-9]*. Otherwise, it will be set to
a safe default appropriate for serial consoles, "vt102". This change is
also duplicated for non-failsafe console shells.

This also indicates failsafe mode by showing "- failsafe -" on all
consoles (not just the last-defined one). It sets a hostname of
"OpenWrt-failsafe" in failsafe mode which is rendered in the shell's
prompt as a reminder of the mode during interactive failsafe use.
Previously, no hostname was set, which resulted in the kernel-default
hostname, "(none)", appearing in failsafe shell prompts.
