 termios: Pass number of sent chars to l_start

 At the moment the line discipline start function (l_start) has no
 possibility to get feedback about the number of characters that have
 been sent. This patch passes that information via an additional
 parameter.

 The change might trigger a warning on existing code because of a pointer
 mismatch but it shouldn't break it. An existing function with the old
 API will just ignore the additional parameter.

 Update #4494
