Stefan Agner 73f6b1f68d base-files: set ptmxmode to 666
Make sure that the (newer) /dev/pts/ptmx is accessible by users. This
is useful e.g. when running containers which symlink /dev/ptmx to
/dev/pts/ptmx on start. The default mode (000) does not allow to
create ptys inside the container.

Using 666 when symlinking /dev/ptmx is also recommended by the kernel
documentation when /dev/ptmx is symlinked:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/devpts.txt

Also buildroot uses ptmxmode=0666. The patch introducing the change
explains related use cases why this is necessary a bit more in depth:

QEMU Emulation Targets
======================

To simplify development, the build system supports building images to
work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures
are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants:

  * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64)
  * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64)
  * PowerPC (qemuppc only)
  * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64)

Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given
in brackets.
