[libvirt] [PATCH] LXC: mount /dev/pts/0 to /dev/console

Now, /dev/console is linked to the /dev/pts/0, so for the process agetty, the tty device of agetty is pts/0. this will cause login container failed. since pts/0 is not in the /etc/securetty. so pam module pam_securetty will prevent the root user logging on the system. this patch doesn't make /dev/console a symbol but binds /dev/pts/0 to it. so the tty device of agetty will be console. root can login the system successfully.
