console-client: Support an alternate string escape mode

This mode is intended to avoid the behavior of witholding any characters
from the console-server. It sends the entire buffer regardless of
matching the escape sequence, however it will immediately terminate
after seeing a full escape sequence and sending the remaining buffered
content.

Tested:
    Ran obmc-console-client with no arguments and ensured the ssh-like
    escape sequence still worked. Then ran `obmc-console-client -e esc`,
    typed a bunch of text into the console followed by esc and watched
    the console exit as expected.

To Build

Note: In addition to a toolchain and autoconf tools, this requires autotools-archive to be installed.

To build this project, run the following shell commands:

./bootstrap.sh
./configure ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS}
make

To fully clean the repository, run:

./bootstrap.sh clean

To Run Server

Running the server requires a serial port (e.g. /dev/ttyS0):

touch obmc-console.conf
./obmc-console-server --config obmc-console.conf ttyS0

To Connect Client

To connect to the server, simply run the client:

./obmc-console-client

To disconnect the client, use the standard ~. combination.
