systemd: make systemd-serialgetty optional

Some distros may prefer to use the upstream systemd support for
starting getty on serial ports. This is now possible by adding
"serial-getty-generator" to PACKAGECONFIG.

The default is unchanged, i.e. systemd's own serial-getty@.service
file does not get packaged and instead systemd-serialgetty is pulled
into images via RRECOMMENDS.
