    libpayload: video: Make cursor fixup independent of visibility
    
    The video console runs a video_console_fixup_cursor() function after
    every printed character to make sure the cursor is still in the output
    window and avoid overflows. For some crazy reason, this function does
    not run when cursor_enabled is false... however, that variable is only
    about cursor *visibility*, and it's imperative that we still do proper
    bounds checking for our output even if the cursor itself doesn't get
    displayed (otherwise we can end up overwriting malloc cookies that cause
    a panic on the next free() and other fun things like that).
    
    In fact, there seems to be no reason at all to even keep track of the
    cursor visibility state in the generic video console framework (the
    specific backends already do it, too), so let's remove that code
    entirely. Also set the default cursor visibilty in the corebootfb
    backend to 0 since that's consistent with what the other backends do.
    
    BUG=None
    TEST=Turn on video console on Big, generate enough output to make it
    scroll, make sure it does not crash.
