make_console_stdio() forces KD_TEXT while reopening /dev/console. When systemd-shutdown enters the exitrd, this can expose the text console over a retained graphical shutdown splash. Let callers choose whether to switch to text mode, and preserve the mode for the exitrd handoff. Keep the existing text-mode behavior for manager reexecution and the crash shell. Restore text mode if executing /shutdown fails and before reporting a fatal error and freezing. Add an unsafe, nonparallel virtual-console regression test requiring explicit opt-in and an already-owned inactive VT in a disposable VM. Check graphics preservation and text restoration through a private /dev/console bind mount, retain stderr diagnostics, and restore the saved mode in the parent even if the child fails.
