Currently only for gl/glsl/vulkan. However, rather than futzing with
con_width and con_height (and trying to guess good values), con_scale
(currently an integer) gives consistent pixel scaling regardless of
window size.
It handles basic cursor motion respecting \r \n \f and \t (might be a
problem for id chars), wraps at the right edge, and automatically
scrolls when the cursor tries to pass the bottom of the screen.
Clearing the buffer resets its cursor to the upper left.
This is intended for the built-in 8x8 bitmap characters and quake's
"conchars", but could potentially be used for any simple (non-composed
characters) mono-spaced font. Currently, the buffers can be created,
destroyed, cleared, scrolled vertically in either direction, and
rendered to the screen in a single blast.
One of the reasons for creating the buffer is to make it so scaling can
be supported in the sw renderer.
