[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 07/13] console: add ui module loading support

[Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com>]

If a requested user interface is not available, try loading it as
module, simliar to block layer modules.  Needed to keep things working
when followup patches start to build user interfaces as modules.
