weston-launch: make sure weston-launch activates the VT

Currently weston-launch does not activate the VT when opening the
terminal directly (e.g. using --tty=/dev/tty7). Weston takes full
control over the terminal by switching it to graphical mode etc.
However, the old VT stays active as can be seen when looking at
sysfs:
  # cat /sys/class/tty/tty0/active
  tty1

Always switch to the new VT to make sure the correct VT is active.
This aligns with how TTY setup is implemented in launcher-direct.c.
