Allow the saving and restoration of VGA text mode. The state is saved on the
first open and restored on the last close. Because of the VGA registers are
linearly mapped to the MMIO space, MMIO access is used which is not limited to
X86 platforms nor to the primary display device.
An echo 0 > /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind will convert the display from
graphics to text mode.

Allocate space for 2 register states: 'current' for the current state of
the hardware, and 'saved', to be used for restoring the hardware to a sane
state. This is in preparation for the addition of state save and restore
hooks to make savagefb work together with the latest Xorg savage driver.

- The Twister chipsets are actually prosavages. Reclassify them as
such and remove the S3_SAVAGE_TWISTER id.
- Fix i2c code if fb_firmware_edid() returns NULL

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
