Test in framebuffer read, write and drawing helpers if FBINFO_VIRTFB
has been set correctly. Framebuffers in I/O memory should only be
accessed with the architecture's respective helpers. Framebuffers
in system memory should be accessed with the regular load and
store operations. Presumably not all drivers get this right, so we
now warn about it.

Improve the performance of sys_fillrect() by using word-aligned
32/64-bit mov instructions. While the code tried to implement this,
the compiler failed to create fast instructions. The resulting
binary instructions were even slower than cfb_fillrect(), which
uses the same algorithm, but operates on I/O memory.
A microbenchmark measures the average number of CPU cycles
for sys_fillrect() after a stabilizing period of a few minutes
(i7-4790, FullHD, simpledrm, kernel with debugging). The value
for CFB is given as a reference.
sys_fillrect(), new: 26586 cycles
sys_fillrect(), old: 166603 cycles
cfb_fillrect(): 41012 cycles
In the optimized case, sys_fillrect() is now ~6x faster than before
and ~1.5x faster than the CFB implementation.

Instead of having fbdev framework core files at the root fbdev
directory, mixed with random fbdev device drivers, move the fbdev core
files to a separate core directory. This makes it much clearer which of
the files are actually part of the fbdev framework, and which are part
of device drivers.
