vgacon: Add support for setting the default cursor state
vc: Add support for hiding the cursor when creating VTs
x86, setup: Store the boot cursor state
Default is 1, i.e. UTF-8 mode is enabled for all
newly opened terminals.

+ Set system-wide default for whether a cursor
+ is shown on new VTs. Default is -1,
+ i.e. cursors will be created by default unless
+ overridden by individual drivers. 0 will hide
+ cursors, 1 will display them.
