Subject: [PATCH POC 1/4] printk: Prepeparation for fake cont buffers

Parts of the line can be premilitary flushed to the console
by console_cont_flush(). When this happen, the cont buffer
could not be used for new lines until the rest of the original
line is flushed. This might cause unnecessary fragmentation
of continuous lines.

This patch is a preparation step to create fake cont buffers
using the information already stored into the main ring buffer.

Most of the existing elements are newly stored via a pointer to
struct printk_log. Also the buffer is changed to a pointer.

The information about the number of characters pushed to the
console is moved to a global variable because it is a global
state.

The patch does not change the existing logic and behavior
any way.
