nspawn: when connected to pipes for stdin/stdout, pass them as-is to PID 1

Previously we always invoked the container PID 1 on /dev/console of the
container. With this change we do so only if nspawn was invoked
interactively (i.e. its stdin/stdout was connected to a TTY). In all other
cases we directly pass through the fds unmodified.

This has the benefit that nspawn can be added into shell pipelines.
