Add rudimentary support for displaying a cursor on a vidconsole. This
helps the user to see where text is being entered.
The implementation so far is very simple: the cursor is just a vertical
bar of fixed width and cannot be erased. To erase the cursor, the text
must be redrawn over it.
This is good enough for expo but will need enhancement to be useful for
the command-line console. For example, it could save and restore the
area behind the cursor.
For now, enable this only for expo, to reduce code size.

At present this is called only when a newline is detected, since this
indicates the start of a line of text being entered.
Export this function so it can be used by expo, which may start a new
text line itself, without first writing out a newline.

Text entry operates within a context which includes quite a bit of
information. For example, with Truetype fonts, each character in the
text string has a position stored, so that it is possible to
backspace to that character. This information is built up as strings
are drawn on the display.
For the command line, there is just a single context. It is created
when command-line entry starts and it is destroyed (or at least not
needed anymore) when the user presses <enter> to enter the command.
By contrast, expo needs to be able to switch in and out of a text-entry
context, since it is also displaying other objects in the scene.
Add a way to save and restore the entry context for a vidconsole. This
is only needed for the truetype vidconsole, so add a method for that,
storing the information in an abuf struct.

At present there is a method for measuring text, but if the actual text
string is not known, it cannot be used.
For text editor we want to set the size of the entry box to cover the
expected text size. Add the concept of a 'norminal' size with a method
to calculate that for the vidconsole.
If the method is not implemented, fall back to using the font size,
which is sufficient for fixed-width fonts.

For laying out text accurately it is necessary to know the width and

It is better to clear the console device rather than the video device,
since the console has the text display. We also need to reset the cursor
position with the console, but not with the video device.
Add a new function to handle this and update the 'cls' command to use it.

At present these are attached to vidconsole which means that the video
uclass requires that a console is enabled. This is not the intention.
The colours are a reasonable way of indexing common colours in any case,
so move them to the video uclass instead.
Rename vid_console_color() to video_index_to_colour() now that it is more
generic. Also fix the inconsistent spelling in these functions.

The EFI subsystems needs to know the size of the terminal. If the
environment variable
stdout = serial,vidconsole
this size cannot be read from the video console. So the EFI subsystem
sends escape sequences to read the size. With this patch we get support
for the following escape sequences:
ESC "7" Save cursor position
ESC "8" Restore cursor position

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

With anti-aliased fonts we need a more fine-grained horizontal position
than a single pixel. Characters can be positioned to start part-way through
a pixel, with anti-aliasing (greyscale edges) taking care of the visual
effect.
To cope with this, use fractional units (1/256 pixel) for horizontal
positions in the text console.
