Open chr device for all serial ports

Now that labels must be unique, the chr devices can't be opened anymore
within the serial port code (in case they are not already opened in
vl.c), as they end up with the same label. Instead opened so
non-assigned one directly in vl.c, with a different label.

This make MIPS Malta board emulation working again.
