Dom0 may be accessed via telnet, meaning the default escape character
(which is the same as telnet's) cannot be directly used to exit the
console. It would be helpful to make the escape character customizable
in such use cases.

Add --escape argument to console tool for this purpose.

Create parse_escape_character static function to convert a character
string (which may include a '^' modifier) into an ANSI integer.

Add argument to getopt options, parse escape character and pass value
to console_loop.

If --escape is not specified, it falls back to the existing behavior
using DEFAULT_ESCAPE_SEQUENCE.

Short of a cover letter, replying here: What has changed from v1? This
then may or may not explain why Luca's R-b aren't here and in patch 2
(anymore).

Jan

Luca's R-b are in v3 - the only changes between v1 and v3 are the footers.

I'll make sure to include a cover letter and an inline changelog in future versions.

Thanks,

Peter
