kmscon: Add recipe

Provide sane defaults that do not have dependencies, such as
a dummy and terminal session support and basic fbdev support.

kmsconvt@.service must be added separatly or else
do_rootfs fails with the following error:

```
do_rootfs: Postinstall scriptlets of ['kmscon'] have failed. If the intention
is to defer them to first boot, then please place them into
pkg_postinst_ontarget:${PN} (). Deferring to first boot via 'exit 1' is no
longer supported.
```

Add a small patch to fix a compiling error when using LLVM as the
preferred toolchain.

Subject: [PATCH] kmscon_conf.c: Fix llvm compilation failure
When building with an LLVM toolchain, the follow error occurs:
```
kmscon_conf.c:757:72:
error: expression which evaluates to zero treated as a null pointer constant
of type 'void *' [-Werror,-Wnon-literal-null-conversion]
CONF_OPTION(0, 0, "gpus", &conf_gpus, NULL, NULL, NULL, &conf->gpus, KMSCON_GPU_ALL),
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
```
Fix the error by adding a cast to (void *).
