Started while plymouth holds DRM master, kmscon retries taking it from
a timer and logs a failure on every attempt. Its built-in 8x16 font
covers the first 256 code points only, held in CP437 order while
kmscon looks glyphs up by Unicode code point, so box drawing, block and
braille characters come out wrong. The input event nodes it reads only
exist with the evdev handler, which nothing pulled in.
Do not start the instance while plymouth reports that it holds the
display, and start it on the plymouth.release event the splash hands
procd when it lets go. Build the GNU Unifont engine into a
kmscon-mod-unifont package; its generator genunifont is packaged as a
host build, and a patch lets meson use that one. The init script
passes --font-engine only when one is configured, so kmscon falls
through to unifont when the module is installed. GNU Unifont is
dual-licensed under GPL-2.0-or-later with a font embedding exception
and OFL-1.1; kmscon takes the font under OFL-1.1, so the module
package carries that licence besides MIT. Depend on kmod-input-evdev.
Fixes: 3c8ebee9b4 ("kmscon: depend on input-support for the evdev nodes")

Video packages feed
Description
This is an OpenWrt package feed containing video / graphics (as in 'higher than just curses') related libraries and applications which are not considered to be so called "core" packages.
Usage
To use these packages, add the following line to the feeds.conf in the OpenWrt buildroot:
src-git video https://github.com/openwrt/video.git
This feed should be included and enabled by default in the OpenWrt buildroot. To install all its package definitions, run:
./scripts/feeds update video
./scripts/feeds install -a -p video
The video packages should now appear in menuconfig in section 'Video'.
