recent topcat(4) framebuffer improvements

[Izumi Tsutsui <tsutsui%ceres.dti.ne.jp@localhost>]

Hi,

As noted in src/doc/CHANGES, I've committed several fixes
for NetBSD/hp300 topcat(4) framebuffers, including
HP98542 (untested), HP98543, HP98544, HP98547, and HP98549 etc.

Back in 2020, I committed a fix for 98543 (and 98542) to handle
"512x400" pixel framebuffers, but now it turns out that 98542 and
98543 actually have 1024x400 pixels.

Ancient CRTs (and even modern LCDs) cannot handle such resolutions
(modern LCDs assume only upte 720 pixels on 400 line mode) and the
HP manuals also says "512 doubled pixels by 400 scan lines".

(Note MAME's hp9k360 98543 emulation also renders it as 1024x400)

Now NetBSD's topcat(4) driver renders wscons fonts as "doubled pixels"
on 98542 and 98543 so we can see proper glyphs on the real screen,
but we have to consider how X.org server should handle 1024x400 mode.

Anyway I've tested 98543, 98544, 98547, and 98549 on 360, 370, and
380 and all of them shows proper wscons screens, and here is a video
running NetBSD/hp300 -current on HP 9000/360 + 98543:

I've also sent a pullup request of there fixes to netbsd-10
so the next NetBSD/hp300 10.1 will include these improvements.

Have fun,
