[PATCH 2/6] vt: add console flag "unblinking"

Marks consoles that interpret the blink bit by showing bright background
instead.  Doesn't matter if the console can't do either.

For now, turn it on for fbcon when in color mode.  Vgacon can also do so
but requires setting appropriate VGA register (bit 3 of AMCR).  I don't
know other consoles: newport looks like it shows bright bg, sti can't do
either, mda appears to blink, etc -- but confirmation would be needed.
