The default template argument is only used in one place, and it
looks like it was probably just an oversight. The rest of the Kernel
code all uses u8 as the type. So lets make that the default and remove
the unused template argument, as there doesn't seem to be a reason to
allow the size to be customizable.
Currently, Kernel::Graphics::FramebufferConsole is written assuming that
the underlying framebuffer memory exists in physically contiguous
memory. There are a bunch of framebuffer devices that would need to use
the components of FramebufferConsole (in particular access to the kernel
bitmap font rendering logic). To reduce code duplication, framebuffer
console has been split into two parts, the abstract
GenericFramebufferConsole class which does the rendering, and the
ContiguousFramebufferConsole class which contains all logic related to
managing the underling vm object.
Also, a new flush method has been added to the class, to support devices
that require an extra flush step to render.
