[PATCH] fbcon/fbdev: Move softcursor out of fbdev to fbcon

According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for
drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant.  The soft_cursor
function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around
fb_imageblit.  And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is
moved to the console directory.

Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor
field blank.  For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own
version.

The end result is a smaller code size.  And if the framebuffer console is not
loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will
also not be loaded.

- *	xxxfb_cursor - 	REQUIRED function. If your hardware lacks support
- *			for a cursor you can use the default cursor whose
- *			function is called soft_cursor. It will always 
- *			work since it uses xxxfb_imageblit function which 
- *			is required. 	  	 
+ *	xxxfb_cursor - 	OPTIONAL. If your hardware lacks support
+ *			for a cursor, leave this field NULL.
  *
  *      @info: frame buffer structure that represents a single frame buffer
  *	@cursor: structure defining the cursor to draw.
