Allow logging in to rescue/emergency shell as root

In Qubes OS guests, the console is _always_ the Xen console.  There are
_never_ untrusted entities with access to this under _any_
circumstances.  The only supported way to get access to this from a VM
is the admin.vm.Console service, which is (by design) equivalent to root
access in the destination VM.  Other consoles, such as a USB serial
console, are not supported as domU consoles under Qubes OS.

Therefore, set SYSTEMD_SULOGIN_FORCE=1 to tell systemd-sulogin-shell to
pass --force to sulogin(8).  Since the root account is locked in Qubes
VMs, this causes sulogin(8) to allow login as root without a password.
Use TTYPath= to enforce that the console is, in fact, the Xen console
and not some other console, in case the assumption in the previous
paragraph turns out false for some reason.  This will break if the Xen
drivers are not included in the guest kernel config, but an HVM guest
with Qubes tools but no Xen drivers is not a supported configuration.
