vconsole: Don't skip udev call for dummy device
Kernel 4.19 supports deferred console takeover [0], i.e., fbcon will take over the console only when the first text is displayed on the console. Before that event, only the dummy console is active. Our currently udev rules call systemd-vconsole on every vtcon except for dummy consoles. Thus the exception for dummy consoles prevents a call to systemd-vconsole when no text is displayed on the console, and as a consequence, the keymap will not be set in that case. This is wrong and leads to issues when keyboard input is expected without text on the console, e.g., when a graphical password prompt is used in the boot process. This reverts commit 6b169c13, which introduced the exception for dummy devices to save unnecessary udev calls. Fixes #10826.
