n_tty: do O_ONLCR translation as a single write
When translating CR to CRNL in the n_tty line discipline, we did it as two tty_put_char() calls. Which works, but is stupid, and has caused problems before too with bad interactions with the write_room() logic. The generic USB serial driver had that problem, for example. Now the pty layer had similar issues after being moved to the generic tty buffering code (in commit d945cb9cce20ac7143c2de8d88b187f62db99bdc: "pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic"). So stop doing the silly separate two writes, and do it as a single write instead. That's what the n_tty layer already does for the space expansion of tabs (XTABS), and it means that we'll now always have just a single write for the CRNL to match the single 'tty_write_room()' test, which hopefully means that the next time somebody screws up buffering, it won't cause weeks of debugging.
