proc tty: add struct tty_operations::proc_fops
Used for gradual switch of TTY drivers from using ->read_proc which helps with gradual switch from ->read_proc for the whole tree. As side effect, fix possible race condition when ->data initialized after PDE is hooked into proc tree. ->proc_fops takes precedence over ->read_proc.
