mbed_retarget: Add an internal class to provide basic console functio…

…nality

The retarget code allocates an array of FileHandle* for console and file
handling (filehandles). A tiny target only needs a console (putc/getc).
There is no need for file handling.

The POSIX layer and the array of FileHandle* is not required for small
targets that only need a console ; this code is optionally compiled
out if the configuration parameter platform.stdio-minimal-console-only is
set to `"true"`.
