proc tty: add struct tty_operations::proc_fops

Used for gradual switch of TTY drivers from using ->read_proc which helps
with gradual switch from ->read_proc for the whole tree.

As side effect, fix possible race condition when ->data initialized after
PDE is hooked into proc tree.

->proc_fops takes precedence over ->read_proc.
