image: ensure that /dev/console exist in rootfs images

Linux expects that the /dev/console node is present in the rootfs image. Create the node in rootfs images, in order to make std{in,out,err} usable even in early init process. Note: tar.gz and cpio.gz images are not handled yet. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <[email protected]> SVN-Revision: 37847
