This provides a console-driver that forwards all log messages to all
framebuffers and redraws them.
To avoid redrawing multiple times in short intervals, we could use a
work-queue here by simply pushing the task onto the system work-queue.
However, fblog is not performance critical and only used for debugging so
we avoid the complexity for now. This may change in the future, though.
