Peter Hurley cbfd0340ae n_tty: Process echoes in blocks
Byte-by-byte echo output is painfully slow, requiring a lock/unlock
cycle for every input byte.

Instead, perform the echo output in blocks of 256 characters, and
at least once per flip buffer receive. Enough space is reserved in
the echo buffer to guarantee a full block can be saved without
overrunning the echo output. Overrun is prevented by discarding
the oldest echoes until enough space exists in the echo buffer
to receive at least a full block of new echoes.
