fix tty/pty check

repost from gentoo:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348923

Modemmanager checks for unexisting /dev/tty/{ttyXX,ptyXX} devices.
It also outputs unnecessary g_message (debug?) information during startup which shows up on a init boot screen.

Please fix tty check and remove the default "noise".
Comment 1 Dan Williams 2011-07-19 19:06:19 UTC 
These have been fixed earlier this year with the logging rework, you can set MM to suppress all output to syslog if you wish.  But we do need to check for virtual ttys that may be provided by platform drivers, so the changes to checks for port names aren't quite accurate.
