vesa & framebuffer accelerants: Drop engine hook stubs.

We don't need to provide them after the previous commit.

Minor coding style cleanup.

Applied an updated patch by looncraz to enable hardware cursor.

I made the following changes to the original patch:
* Add const to the cursor setting functions.
* Removed the legacy cursor copying code.
* Minor coding style cleanup.

* Added a fake overlay support, allowing you to test overlay support in the
app_server without having a card that actually supports this.

Fix some char/line limit and naming problems. No functional change.

* The boot loader now passes on its EDID info to the kernel, and that will
be put into a boot_item in frame_buffer_console_init().
* The VESA driver now supports gettings the EDID information as well; this
is necessary now, since the app_server no longer takes over the mode the
boot loader had chosen.
* Note, we might want to do this via vm86 instead in the future, and remove
the kernel part again.

Fixes that make Haiku build with gcc 4. Mainly out of the following
categories:
* Missing includes (like <stdlib.h> and <string.h>).
* Linking against $(TARGET_LIBSTDC++) instead of libstdc++.r4.so.
* Local variables shadowing parameters.
* Default parameters in function definitions (as opposed to function
declarations).
* All C++ stuff (nothrow, map, set, vector, min, max,...) must be imported
explicitly from the std:: namespace now.
* "new (sometype)[...]" must read "new sometype[...]", even if sometype is
something like "const char *".
* __FUNCTION__ is no longer a string literal (but a string expression), i.e.
'printf(__FUNCTION__ ": ...\n")' is invalid code.
* A type cast results in a non-lvalue. E.g. "(char *)buffer += bytes"
is an invalid expression.
* "friend class SomeClass" only works when SomeClass is known before.
Otherwise the an inner class with that name is considered as friend.
gcc 4 is much pickier about scopes.
* gcc 4 is generally stricter with respect to type conversions in C.

Added very basic VESA driver. Will be improved in the future (right now
it doesn't really do anything, it just passes the initial frame buffer
on to the app_server).
While it seems to work on real hardware (if you set the video mode to
640x480x32, app_server restriction), under Bochs, the app_server crashes.
