Fixes the following bug:
http://bugs.linuxbase.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2692
Causes processing of echoed characters (output from the echo buffer) to
honor the O_OPOST flag, which is consistent with the old behavior.
Note that this and the next patch ("n_tty: move echoctl check and
clean up logic") were verified together by the bug reporters, and
the test now passes.
