x86: video: Allow keyboard presence to be controlled by device tree
At present a VGA console assumes a keyboard unless a CONFIG option is set. This difference can be dealt with by a device tree option, allowing boards that are otherwise the same to use the same configuration. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

+---------------------
+
+A number of run-time configuration options are provided in the /config node
+of the control device tree. You can access these using fdtdec_get_config_int(),
+fdtdec_get_config_bool() and fdtdec_get_config_string().
+
+Available options are:
+
+silent-console
+ If present and non-zero, the console is silenced by default on boot.
+
+no-keyboard
+ Tells U-Boot not to expect an attached keyboard with a VGA console
