Enable vt(4) by default

vt(4) is a new console driver which brings features such as:
    o  Support for Unicode and double-width characters
    o  Integration with the KMS kernel video drivers
    o  Support for UEFI

You may need to update your console settings in /etc/rc.conf, most
probably the keymap. During boot, /etc/rc.d/syscons will indicate what
you need to do.

vt(4) still has issues and lacks some features compared to syscons(4).
See the wiki for up-to-date information:
    https://wiki.freebsd.org/Newcons

If you want to keep using syscons(4), you can do so by adding the
following line to /boot/loader.conf:
    kern.vty=sc
