Implement support for CONFIG_SERIAL_MULTI into amirix serial driver. This driver was so far only usable directly, but this patch also adds support for the multi method. This allows using more than one serial driver alongside the amirix driver. Also, add a weak implementation of default_serial_console() returning this driver.

This looks like a standard NS16550 implementation. Why not use the common driver then? Also, this board doesn't seem actively maintained. I cc'ed Frank Smith as author of this board port.
Frank, is this board still in production? Or does it make sense to remove this board from mainline completely?
It's not the only one that reimplements NS16550. I didn't clean it up to avoid breakage.
Thanks, Stefan
