TODO: remove vconsole items

We should not pimp up the kernel's VC stuff, it's too linited and
fragile.

At the moment not even the font uploaded early during bootup does
survive the KMS driver taking over the framebuffer driver. We
surely don't want to make promises about colors or resolution.

The future is fullscreen KMS/kmscon/wayland/... based terminals using
X fonts, keymaps, input methods, and not the old school too limited
kernel VC stuff. So leave the kernel VCs as they are, and don't expect
wonders.
