[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] 0/5 VT switching in fbdev

This series of patches adds VT-switching support to vo_fbdev. When the tty
mplayer is running on is not visible, it stops drawing on the screen, just as
you would expect if you consider switching away from the VT analogous to
lowering or iconifying an X11 window.

I have not attempted to make this work with -vo fbdev:vidix - if I have done
the #ifdefs right, it should still show the old behavior (VT switching
disabled)

Patch summary:

1/5 Add vtswitch_init/vtswitch_uninit
2/5 Make cmap a file-scope static variable
3/5 Make vm a file-scope static variable
4/5 Smarten up multi-framebuffer usage
5/5 The main body of vtswitch code
