Remove support for auto-spawning VTs

Auto-spawning VTs requires systemd in practice.  If you're using systemd
you can just use its logind :)

-        login <literal>gettys</literal> are available on the VTs. If a
-        VT is already used by some other subsystem (for example, a

-        of activation, even if it is not one of the VTs configured
