New Global For Console Daemon

This change implements a new global variable that indicates
whether the console daemon has been started. This variable
is checked in the doShutdown path prior to printing any
console traces.

There may be a situation very early in the IPL where we
attempt to write to console before the console daemon has
been started. This causes timeouts and IPL failures.
