serial: fix platform driver hotplug/coldplug

Browse Source 
Since 43cc71eed1, the platform modalias is
prefixed with "platform:".  Add MODULE_ALIAS() to the hotpluggable serial
platform drivers, to re-enable auto loading.

NOTE that Kconfig for some of these drivers doesn't allow modular builds, and
thus doesn't match the driver source's unload support.  Presumably their
unload code is buggy and/or weakly tested...
