exec: hangup/reset/deallocate VTs in gettys

Explicitly disconnect all clients from a VT when a getty starts/finishes
(requires TIOCVHANGUP, available in 2.6.29).

Explicitly deallocate getty VTs in order to flush scrollback buffer.

Explicitly reset terminals to a defined state before spawning getty.
