Fonts: Add charcount field to font_desc
Subsystems are hard-coding the number of characters of our built-in fonts
as 256. Include that information in our kernel font descriptor, `struct
font_desc`.

Fonts: Replace discarded const qualifier
Commit 6735b4632def ("Fonts: Support FONT_EXTRA_WORDS macros for built-in
fonts") introduced the following error when building rpc_defconfig (only
this build appears to be affected):
`acorndata_8x8' referenced in section `.text' of arch/arm/boot/compressed/ll_char_wr.o:
defined in discarded section `.data' of arch/arm/boot/compressed/font.o
`acorndata_8x8' referenced in section `.data.rel.ro' of arch/arm/boot/compressed/font.o:
defined in discarded section `.data' of arch/arm/boot/compressed/font.o
make[3]: *** [/scratch/linux/arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile:191: arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 1

make[1]: *** [/scratch/linux/arch/arm/Makefile:317: zImage] Error 2
The .data section is discarded at link time. Reinstating acorndata_8x8 as
const ensures it is still available after linking. Do the same for the
other 12 built-in fonts as well, for consistency purposes.

Fonts: Support FONT_EXTRA_WORDS macros for font_6x8
Recently, in commit 6735b4632def ("Fonts: Support FONT_EXTRA_WORDS macros
for built-in fonts"), we wrapped each of our built-in data buffers in a
`font_data` structure, in order to use the following macros on them, see
include/linux/font.h:
#define REFCOUNT(fd) (((int *)(fd))[-1])
#define FNTSIZE(fd) (((int *)(fd))[-2])
#define FNTCHARCNT(fd) (((int *)(fd))[-3])
#define FNTSUM(fd) (((int *)(fd))[-4])
#define FONT_EXTRA_WORDS 4
Do the same thing to our new 6x8 font. For built-in fonts, currently we
only use FNTSIZE(). Since this is only a temporary solution for an
out-of-bounds issue in the framebuffer layer (see commit 5af08640795b
("fbcon: Fix global-out-of-bounds read in fbcon_get_font()")), all the
three other fields are intentionally set to zero in order to discourage
using these negative-indexing macros.
