[OpenWrt-Devel] kernel: make kmod-fbcon a built-in of kmod-fb

As of commit 6104c37094 fbcon: Make fbcon a built-time depency for fbdev
framebuffer console is build in into framebuffer module and there's no
standalone fbcon module. Therfore drop the kmod-fbcon and enable console
in kmod-fb. The only targets which use these modules are imx6 and geode,
both are on kernel 4.14 so no fallback for other kernels is introduced.
Being at that this commit also fixes autoload of fbdev for x86.

Please ignore this, there's second version with more suitable title:
[PATCH v2] kernel: merge kmod-fbcon with kmod-fb
