The Kconfig menu "TrueType Fonts" should only be shown if TrueType is
enabled.

Put all TrueType dependent customization within one if statement.
Remove `depends TRUETYPE` clauses.

A TrueType font for U-Boot should fulfill the following requirements:

* mono spaced
* support full code page 437
* easily readable

Unfortunately none of the fonts provided with U-Boot fulfills all of these
requirements.

Let's add the DejaVu Mono font. To reduce the code size the characters are
limited to code page 437.

At present it is possible to enable TrueType support but not include any
fonts. This results in a blank display. Select Nimbus as the default font
to avoid this.

<title>SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style</title>

<id>83d290c56fab2d38cd1ab4c4cc7099559c1d5046</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

This font is a little more ornate than normal. Example uses are on security

<title>video: Add a console driver that uses TrueType fonts</title>

<content type='text'>
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.
