This font is suitable for framebuffer consoles on devices with a
320x240 screen, to get a reasonable number of characters (53x24) that
are still at a readable size.
The font is derived from the existing 6x11 font, but gets 3 extra
lines without sacrificing readability. Also I redesigned a some glyhps
so they are more distinct and better fill the available space.

STI console is used on parisc and m68k HP machines. This patch partly reverts
my previous commit and as such restores the fonts for the m68k machines.

The built-in ROM fonts lack many necessary ASCII characters, which is
why it makes sens to prefer the Linux fonts instead if they are
available. This makes consoles on STI graphics cards which are not
supported by the stifb driver (e.g. Visualize FXe) looks much nicer.

Several drivers need font support independent of CONFIG_VT, cfr. commit
9cbce8d7e1dae0744ca4f68d62aa7de18196b6f4, "console/font: Refactor font
support code selection logic").
Hence move the fonts and their support logic from drivers/video/console/ to
its own library directory lib/fonts/.
This also allows to limit processing of drivers/video/console/Makefile to
CONFIG_VT=y again.
