Description

After resolving other console issues with the 4100/6100/8200 in #13455 a problem remains with the login prompt.

It is not printing a newline before the FreeBSD version string nor is it printing a newline before the password prompt:

[...])FreeBSD/amd64 (pfsense.home.arpa) (ttyu0)

login: rootPassword:
Netgate 4100 [...]

It should look like this:

FreeBSD/amd64 (pfsense.home.arpa) (ttyu0)

login: root
Password:
Netgate 4100 [...]

Changing the console type doesn't have any effect, nor does changing various aspects of the TTY (e.g. setting it to xterm or cons25w instead of vt100, or using std instead of 3wire).
