dev: Include basic devices in NULL ISA build

This patch enbles use of the basic PIO devices as part of the NULL
build. Although it might seem counter intuitive to have a PIO device
without being able to execute a driver, this change enables us to
break a device class hierarchy into an ISA-agnostic part, and an
ISA-specific part, without requiring multiple-inheritance. The
ISA-agnostic base class is a PIO device, but does not make use of the
port.
All regressions pass
