pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic
This fixes the ppp problems and various other issues with call locking caused by one side of a pty called in one locking context trying to match another with differing rules on the other side. We also get a big slack space to work with that means we can bury the flow control deadlock case for any conceivable real world situation.
