a6c26592f1 Extend libteken to support CJK fullwidth characters.
Introduce a new formatting bit (TF_CJK_RIGHT) that is set when putting a
cell that is the right part of a CJK fullwidth character. This will
allow drivers like vt(9) to support fullwidth characters properly.

emaste@ has a patch to extend vt(9)'s font handling to increase the
number of Unicode -> glyph maps from 2 ({normal,bold)} to 4
({normal,bold} x {left,right}). This will need to use this formatting
bit to determine whether to draw the left or right glyph.

ecc16c8d3a Add proper build infrastructure for teken.
I'm not sure whether we should install teken as a library on any stock
FreeBSD installation, but I can imagine people want to tinker around
with it now and then. Create a /sys/teken/libteken, which holds a
Makefile to install a shared library version of the terminal emulator,
complete with a manpage.

Also add Makefiles for the demo/stress applications, to build it against
the shared library.

d80a1e6c1b Place home and end before insert and delete.
These keys have different sequences when using cursorkeys, while insert
and delete stay the same. If they are placed like this, libteken will
return NULL instead of a proper sequence for these characters.

3a8a07eadd Allow Syscons terminal emulators to provide function key strings.
xterm and cons25 have some incompatibilities when it comes to escape
sequences for special keys, such as F1 to F12, home, end, etc. Add a new
te_fkeystr() that can be used to override the strings.

scterm-sck won't do anything with this, but scterm-teken will use
teken_get_sequences() to obtain the proper sequence.

53e69c0c2a Add support for VT200-style mouse input.
Right now if applications want to use the mouse on the command line,
they use sysmouse(4) and install a signal handler in the kernel to
deliver signals when mouse events arrive. This conflicts with my plan to
change to TERM=xterm, so implement proper VT200-style mouse input.

Because mouse input is now streamed through the TTY, it means you can
now SSH to another system on the console and use the mouse there as
well. The disadvantage of the VT200 mouse protocol, is that it doesn't
seem to generate events when moving the cursor. Only when pressing and
releasing mouse buttons.

There are different protocols as well, but this one seems to be most
commonly supported.

56a4365bde Add 256 color support.
It is quite inconvenient that if an application for xterm uses 256 color
mode, text suddenly starts to blink (because of ;5; in the middle).
We'd better just implement 256 color mode and add a conversion routine
from 256 to 8 color mode, which doesn't seem to be too bad in practice.

Remapping colors is done quite simple. If one of the channels is most
actively represented, primary colors are used. If two channels are most
actively represented, secondary colors are used. If all three channels
are equal (gray), it picks between black and white.

fbcd1b6eac Make SCS work in 8-bit mode.
This means we can finally do things like VT100 box drawing when using
Syscons (8-bit characters). As far as I know, the only remaining issue
is the absense of proper escape sequences for special keyboard
characters (cursor, F1 to F12, etc) and xterm emulation should be ready
for general use.

Enabling xterm would have the following advantages:

- Easier possible migration to Unicode. cons25 termcap entries are very
  8-bit centric. They use things like CP437 characters for box drawing,
  etc.

- Better support for SSH'ing to other operating systems/devices. Most
  switches use VT100-style admin interfaces.

- Reduced bandwidth, because applications can now use things like
  scrolling regions.

- You can finally use applications like dtach(1) on both the console and
  inside an xterm.

eba77f5c40 Commit all local modifications I have to libteken:
- Make xterm/cons25 support runtime configurable. This allows me to
  share libteken between syscons and my new vt driver.
- Add a fix to print blanks after printing a double width character to
  prevent rendering artifacts.
- Add some more utility functions that I use in the vt driver.

e06d84fc49 Make 8-bit support run-time configurable.
Now to do the same for xterm support. This means people can eventually
toy around with xterm+UTF-8 without recompiling their kernel.

4a6ecf078b Expose the TF_REVERSE flag to the console driver.
Right now libteken processes TF_REVERSE internally and returns the
toggled colors to the console driver. This isn't entirely correct. This
means that the bold flag is always processed by the foreground color,
while reversing should be done after the foreground color has been set
to a brighter version by the bold flag.

This is no problem with the syscons driver, because with VGA it only
supports 16 foreground and 8 background colors. My WIP console driver
reconfigures the graphics hardware to disable the blink functionality
and uses 16 foreground and 16 background colors. This means that this
driver will handle the TF_REVERSE flag a little different from what
syscons does right now.

9b934d0930 Move libteken out of the syscons directory.
I initially committed libteken to sys/dev/syscons/teken, but now that
I'm working on a console driver myself, I noticed this was not a good
decision. Move it to sys/teken to make it easier for other drivers to
use a terminal emulator.

Also list teken.c in sys/conf/files, instead of listing it in all the
files.arch files separately.
