Description

We need better terminal emulator in loader. Using the one from our kernel will allow to create consistent console flow.

Note that at this time there is no plan to merge loader tem back with in-kernel tem, because the kernel tem has much more complexity in it (multithreaded, requirement to have safe interfaces to support mdb).
