These patches provide the following enhancements to the stdvga device:

* enables linear framebuffer and VBE 3.0 extensions.
* add a number of new resolutions, up to 2560x1600, and including widescreen modes common to modern displays.
* Introduce configurable video ram size through the "videoram" config file option, shrinking default video ram used to 4 Megs (thus eliminating 4 wasted megs/VM that have been the case until now), but allowing users to specify up to 16 Megs of vram, to support the extreme high resolutions such as 2560x1600x32.

Special thanks to Stefano Stabellini for some save/restore fixes and for constructive criticism.
