tty: serial: lantiq: implement earlycon support
This allows enabling earlycon for devices with a Lantiq serial console by splitting lqasc_serial_port_write() from lqasc_console_write() and re-using the new function for earlycon's write callback. The kernel-parameter name matches the driver name ("lantiq"), similar to how other drivers implement this.
