pygrub should be getting the console=hvc0 from the grub cfg and
hvc0.conf ought to already exist.

If Ubuntu isn't setting these up by default during install when running
under Xen then this should be reported as a bug to Ubuntu.

I'm not familiar with current Ubuntu so I don't know if these are
expected to be there i.e. I don't know if this is a wishlist/new-feature
bug or just a bug in functionality which is expected to Just Work
already.
