hw/char: sifive_uart: Print uart characters async

The current approach of using qemu_chr_fe_write() and ignoring the
return values results in dropped characters [1].

Let's update the SiFive UART to use a async sifive_uart_xmit() function
to transmit the characters and apply back pressure to the guest with
the SIFIVE_UART_TXFIFO_FULL status.

This should avoid dropped characters and more realisticly model the
hardware.
