specialix: Code cleanups

Go through the inlines and other oddments that are iffy. Remove various bits
of dead code and bogus debug. Turn the crtsdts compile time option into a
runtime switch.

I actually prefer to use the "Specialix DTR/RTS pin is RTS" option.
I actually prefer to use the "specialix.sx_rtscts=1" option.
This makes the DTR/RTS pin always an RTS pin, and ioctls to
change DTR are always ignored. I have a cable that is configured
for this.

The Specialix IO8+ card can only support either RTS or DTR. If you
say N here, the driver will use the pin as "DTR" when the tty is in
software handshake mode. If you say Y here or hardware handshake is
on, it will always be RTS. Read the file
