video: Add a console driver that uses TrueType fonts The existing 8x16 font is adequate for most purposes. It is small and fast. However for boot screens where information must be presented to the user, the console font is not ideal. Common requirements are larger and better-looking fonts. This console driver can use TrueType fonts built into U-Boot, and render them at any size. This can be used in scripts to place text as needed on the display. This driver is not really designed to operate with the command line. Much of U-Boot expects a fixed-width font. But to keep things working correctly, rudimentary support for the console is provided. The main missing feature is support for command-line editing. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de>

video: Add the AnkaCoder mono-spaced font This can be used when a mono-space font is needed, but the console font is too small (such as with high-DPI displays). Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
