fbcon: add fbcon=margin:<color> command line option

Browse Source 
This adds a new command line option to select the fbcon margin color.

The motivation for this is screens where black does not blend into the
physical surroundings of the screen. For example, using an LCD (not the
backlit kind), white text on a black background is hard to read, so
inverting the colors is preferred. However, when you do this, most of the
screen is filled with white but the margins are still filled with black.
This makes a big, black, backwards 'L' on the screen. By setting
fbcon=margin:7, the margins will be filled with white and the LCD looks as
expected.

Actually, the underlying fb driver is totally ignorant of console
rotation.
5. fbcon=margin:<color>
This option specifies the color of the margins. The margins are the
leftover area at the right and the bottom of the screen that are not
used by text. By default, this area will be black. The 'color' value
is 0 to 7 where 0 is black and 7 is white.
