Linux: Require properly configured /dev/pts for PTYs

Current systems do not have BSD terminals, so the fallback code in
posix_openpt/getpt does not do anything.  Also remove the file system
check for /dev/pts.  Current systems always have a devpts file system
mounted there if /dev/ptmx exists.

grantpt is now essentially a no-op.  It only verifies that the
argument is a ptmx-descriptor.  Therefore, this change indirectly
addresses bug 24941.

The file 'pt_chown' is a helper binary for 'grantpt' (*note

up pseudo-terminal ownership. It is not built by default because
systems using the Linux kernel are commonly built with the 'devpts'
filesystem enabled and mounted at '/dev/pts', which manages
pseudo-terminal ownership automatically. By using
'--enable-pt_chown', you may build 'pt_chown' and install it setuid

security risks to the system and you should enable it only if you
understand and accept those risks.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:
[Add changes to build and runtime requirements here]
* On Linux, the system administrator needs to configure /dev/pts with
the intended access modes for pseudo-terminals. glibc no longer
attemps to adjust permissions of terminal devices. The previous glibc
defaults ("tty" group, user read/write and group write) already
corresponded to what most systems used, so that grantpt did not
perform any adjustments.
* On Linux, the posix_openpt and getpt functions no longer attempt to
use legacy (BSD) pseudo-terminals and assume that if /dev/ptmx exists
(and pseudo-terminals are supported), a devpts file system is mounted
on /dev/pts. Current systems already meet these requirements.
