serial: dm: Add support for puts

Some serial drivers can be vastly more efficient when printing multiple
characters at once. Non-DM serial has had a puts option for these sorts
of drivers; implement it for DM serial as well.

Because we have to add carriage returns, we can't just pass the whole
string directly to the serial driver. Instead, we print up to the
newline, then print a carriage return, and then continue on. This is
less efficient, but it is better than printing each character
individually. It also avoids having to allocate memory just to add a few
characters.

Drivers may perform short writes (such as filling a FIFO) and return the
number of characters written in len. We loop over them in the same way
that _serial_putc loops over putc.

This results in around sizeof(void *) growth for all boards with
DM_SERIAL. The full implementation takes around 140 bytes.
