Amanoel Dawod ac8b6f148f Fonts: New Terminus large console font
This patch adds an option to compile-in a high resolution
and large Terminus (ter16x32) bitmap console font for use with
HiDPI and Retina screens.

The font was convereted from standard Terminus ter-i32b.psf
(size 16x32) with the help of psftools and minor hand editing
deleting useless characters.

This patch is non-intrusive, no options are enabled by default so most
users won't notice a thing.

I am placing my changes under the GPL 2.0 just as source Terminus font.

Say Y here if you would like to use fonts other than the default
your frame buffer console usually use.
Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
the questions about foreign fonts.
If unsure, say N (the default choices are safe).

This is the "high resolution" font for the VGA frame buffer (the one
provided by the text console 80x50 (and higher) modes).
Note that this is a poor quality font. The VGA 8x16 font is quite a
lot more readable.
Given the resolution provided by the frame buffer device, answer N
here is safe.

This is the "high resolution" font for the VGA frame buffer (the one

Small console font with Macintosh-style high-half glyphs. Some Mac
framebuffer drivers don't support this one at all.

Console font with characters just a bit smaller than the default.
If the standard 8x16 font is a little too big for you, say Y.
Otherwise, say N.

Medium-size console font. Suitable for framebuffer consoles on
embedded devices with a 320x240 screen, to get a reasonable number
of characters (53x24) that are still at a readable size.

This is a high resolution console font for machines with very
big letters. It fits between the sun 12x22 and the normal 8x16 font.
If other fonts are too big or too small for you, say Y, otherwise say N.

Terminus Font is a clean, fixed width bitmap font, designed
for long (8 and more hours per day) work with computers.
This is the high resolution, large version for use with HiDPI screens.
If the standard font is unreadable for you, say Y, otherwise say N.
