shadow FB size could be rather large and depends on resolution,
instead of using heap, allocate dedicated space outside of heap.

Store whether or not we found a vbefb module (eg, a tg supported kernel)
in the preloaded_file structure. This automatically resets on reload and
eliminates load_elf knowing about any gfx_* interface. Restrict this to
i386, which is the only place it's used. Update libi386 to check in the
preloaded_file struct. Eliminate this from the teken_gfx
structure. Rewrite the parsing code to be more inline. Check this from
the same place we check for a relocatable amd64 kernel.

Reading from Write Combining memory can be very-very slow. Try to use
shadow buffer to avoid such reads.

When drawing cursor, we should store original display
content because there may be image data we would like to restore
when the cursor is removed.

Calculate font size from 16 density independent pixels (dp) by using:
size = 16 * ppi/160 * display_factor
We are specifying font size 16dp, and assuming 1dp = 160ppi.
Also apply scaling factor 2 (display_factor).

The VT screen buffer size is calculated based on our default
built in (8x16) font.
With high-resolution display, we want to use at least 8x16 font,
or we will have large unused areas on screen.

Draw console on efi.
Add vbe framebuffer for BIOS loader (vbe off, vbe on, vbe list,
vbe set xxx).
autoload font (/boot/fonts) based on resolution and font size.
Add command loadfont (set font by file) and
variable screen.font (set font by size). Pass loaded font to kernel.
Export variables:
screen.height
screen.width
screen.depth
Add gfx primitives to draw the screen and put png image on the screen.
Rework menu draw to iterate list of consoles to enamble device specific
output.
Probably something else I forgot...
