introduce cngets, a method for kernel to read a string from console

This is intended as a replacement for libkern's gets and mostly borrows
its implementation.  It uses cngrab/cnungrab to delimit kernel's access
to console input.

Note: libkern's gets obviously doesn't share any bits of implementation
iwth libc's gets.  They also have different APIs and the former doesn't
have the overflow problems of the latter.
