r273544 (MFC in r273921) changed the -f option allow no arguments in vt
mode (used to reset the font back to the default), but broke the
optionality of the size argument for syscons. Drop the required argument
from syscons' optstring for -f so the optional argument handler works
the same way for both syscons and vt.

To restore the default font using vidcontrol(1), use the "-f" flag
without an argument:
vidcontrol -f < /dev/ttyv0

It contains the following changes:
- Add references to vt(4) to relevant man-pages.
- Update comment in defaults/rc.conf to mention vt
- Update rc.d/syscons to warn about syscons keymaps used under vt.
An attempt is made to identify the vt keymap to load instead.
- Minor changes to the conversion tool based on mail comments on keymaps.

Use a common tunable to choose between vt(4)/sc(4)
With this change and previous work from ray@ it will be possible to put
both in GENERIC, and have one enabled by default, but allow the other to
be selected via the loader.
(The previous implementation had separate kern.vt.disable and
hw.syscons.disable tunables, and would panic if both drivers were
compiled in and neither was explicitly disabled.)

Fix vt(4) detection in kbdcontrol and vidcontrol
As sc(4) and vt(4) coexist and are both enabled in GENERIC, the existence
of a vt(4) sysctl is not sufficient to determine that vt(4) is in use.

While there, remove the false optimisation of the colors array. It seems
that changing it to an array of pointers instead of a 16x16 array does
not cause any increase in binary size at all.
This will make it more easy for people to experiment with TERM=xterm.
Instead of echoing these strange escape sequences, I can just instruct
them to run `vidcontrol -T xterm'.
24, and 32 bit modes. To use that, syscons(4) must be built with
the compile time option 'options SC_PIXEL_MODE', and VESA support (a.k.a.
vesa.ko) must be either loaded, or be compiled into the kernel.
Do not return EINVAL when the mouse state is changed to what it already is,

implemented using a new VT_LOCKSWITCH ioctl. Although it is possible
to implement something like this by VT_SETMODEing to VT_PROCESS and
never releasing the vty, that method has a number of downsides, the
biggest of which is that some program has to stay resident for the
lock to be in effect.

1) Removed the low-level (unneeded in this context) details on
escape sequences that are already documented in screen(4).
2) Removed whitespace at EOL.
3) Removed the garbage from previous revision.
Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.
