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
               converted

Where does "ter-i32b.psf" come from?
I.e., where can I find it?
(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.

Please update Documentation/fb/fbcon.txt with the addition of that font name
if that is applicable.

The Unix/Linux Terminus sources are available for download
at SourceForge. Simply running "make" in source directory
will build the .psf font files.
