[PATCH] hw/char/pl011: support backend hotswap

From: Aleksanr Mikhalitsyn <[email protected]>

Currently, when Incus issues "chardev-change" QMP command to change
chardev backend from ringbuf to socket it receives an error (with aarch64 VM):
"Chardev user does not support chardev hotswap" [1], [2]

Let's fix this by properly implementing BackendChangeHandler for pl011.
