In Stable, sddm was not blocking VT2 etc. Now it blocks VT2 (VT1 is
blocked for some time by boot messages, unfortuantely). So the first
usable VT is VT3.

When I restart sddm after the crash (see #1072840), VT1 is used, so I
can use VT 2 again for work.

I could not figure out where this is configured, the files in
/etc/sddm/ do not seem to govern it.

Kindly use VT1 by default.
