First round in syscons update. Several new features has been added:

No kernel config options anymore besides keyboard language layout.
Virtual consoles are now dynamically allocated, no NCONS anymore.
Software cursor blinking/nonblinking.
Visual bell for laptops (don't beep at meetings :-).
Cursor/bell default type setable via config "flags" instead of as defines.
Cursor/bell type setable via ioctl's.
New video modes 80x30 80x60 for some laptops, and those with multisync monitors.
Scroll-lock history (length currently fixed at 100 lines).
Lots of cleanups, some only commented out for now (will goaway soon).
Support for new features in vidcontrol/kbdcontrol.
Updated manpages.
