dummycon: Trigger redraw when switching consoles with deferred takeover

commit 03bcbbb upstream.

Signal vt subsystem to redraw console when switching to dummycon
with deferred takeover enabled. Makes the console switch to fbcon
and displays the available output.

With deferred takeover enabled, dummycon acts as the placeholder
until the first output to the console happens. At that point, fbcon
takes over. If the output happens while dummycon is not active, it
cannot inform fbcon. This is the case if the vt subsystem runs in
graphics mode.

A typical graphical boot starts plymouth, a display manager and a
compositor; all while leaving out dummycon. Switching to a text-mode
console leaves the console with dummycon even if a getty terminal
has been started.

Returning true from dummycon's con_switch helper signals the vt
subsystem to redraw the screen. If there's output available dummycon's
con_putc{s} helpers trigger deferred takeover of fbcon, which sets a
display mode and displays the output. If no output is available,
dummycon remains active.

v2:
- make the comment slightly more verbose (Javier)
