ac036f9570 vga: optimise console scrolling
Where possible, call memset16(), memmove() or memcpy() instead of using
open-coded loops.  I don't like the calling convention that uses a byte
count instead of a count of u16s, but it's a little late to change that.
Reduces code size of fbcon.o by almost 400 bytes on my laptop build.

67dc0d4758 vt_buffer: drop console buffer copying optimisations
These two copy to/from VGA memory, however on the Silicon
Motion SMI750 VGA card on a 64-bit system cause console corruption.

This is due to the hw being buggy and not handling a 64-bit transaction
correctly.

We could try and create a 32-bit version of these routines,
but I'm not sure the optimisation is worth much today.

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!
