Add this information to platform data and copy it to the video device when needed.

This is controlled by the video driver's private data. This can be set up when the driver is probed so that it is ready for the video_post_probe() method. The font size is provided as well. The console driver may or may not support this depending on its capability.

Example uses are on security screens where a feeling of formality is required.

It helps to make the device feel familiar.

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.

Provide an optional method so that the driver can handle this operation.

On some panels this makes it hard to read. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
