Subject: [RFC][PATCH 1/4]: Factor out PTY index allocation

Factor out the code used to allocate/free a pts index into new interfaces,
devpts_new_index() and devpts_kill_index().  This localizes the external
data structures used in managing the pts indices.

Changelog:
	- Version 0: Based on earlier versions from Serge Hallyn and
	  Matt Helsley.
