Log Message:
XEN3_DOM0: Fix pckbc console attachment logic

Copy PCKBD_CNATTACH_MAY_FAIL lines from GENERIC to XEN3_DOM0.

GENERIC defines PCKBD_CNATTACH_MAY_FAIL, which means that an attempt
to activate console input on pckbc will fail if there is no keyboard
present.  This is a problem on semi-modern machines that have pckbc
silicon but not ports, and thus almost always have a USB keyboard
also.  What I suspect are bugs in console attachment logic lead to
attempting to attach a ukbd while there already is a console keyboard,
and with DIAGNOSTIC this is (properly) fatal, so XEN3_DOM0 blows up
with a USB keyboard in current, and probably not in 9.

Live tested on a machine that previously paniced on boot.
