Patch file for WSCONS support

This patch adds a written-from-scratch WSCONS driver for OpenBSD. It does not have hardcoded keymaps, and it features mouse support when wsmux is available.

For this to work, it needs access to the /dev/wskbd* devices which are not available to non-root users by default. Access to those can be granted by changing /etc/fbtab to give the logging user the ownership of those devices.
