According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for
drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant. The soft_cursor
function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around
fb_imageblit. And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is
moved to the console directory.
Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor
field blank. For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own
version.
The end result is a smaller code size. And if the framebuffer console is not
loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will
also not be loaded.

This lifts sisfb from version 1.7.17 to version 1.8.9. Changes include:
- Added support for XGI V3XT, V5, V8, Z7 chipsets, including POSTing of
all of these chipsets.
- Added support for latest SiS chipsets (761).
- Added support for SiS76x memory "hybrid" mode.
- Added support for new LCD resolutions (eg 1280x854, 856x480).
- Fixed support for 320x240 STN panels (for embedded devices).
- Fixed many HDTV modes (525p, 750p, 1080i).
- Fixed PCI config register reading/writing to use proper kernel
functions for this purpose.
- Fixed PCI ROM handling to use the kernel's proper functions.
- Removed lots of "typedef"s.
- Removed lots of code which was for X.org/XFree86 only.
- Fixed coding style in many places.
- Removed lots of 2.4 cruft.
- Reduced stack size by unifying two previously separate structs into
one.
- Added new hooks for memory allocation (for DRM). Now the driver can
truly handle multiple cards, including memory management.
- Fixed numerous minor bugs.

This patch makes some needlessly global identifiers static.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
