Expose TTY IHOG and OHOG values to tuning

When working with large amounts of text, it is easy to overwhelm the TTY buffers. This logs TTYHOG OVER-RUN errors. In AIX 3.2, this could be set using an stty command, but that has been removed since. Setting it can now be accomplished via ioctl and some C code using TXSETIHOG and TXSETOHOG operations, but this is far from common knowledge, let alone user-friendly. This should at least be exposed via the stty command, if not some additional, more uniform way AIX administrators and users are accustomed to (think "nfso -L" showing current/default/boot/min/max/unit - granted this would ideally be session settable, as well as system default settable.)
