setfont/kbd_mode - which console?

Hi List

Sometime ago I submitted patches for busybox setfont and kbd_mode to support 
the -C device option, which specified the console device to take action upon.
Either they didn't get accepted for whatever reason, or lost somewhere in the 
ether. Either way, the old patches no longer apply.

So, in an attempt yet again to get OpenRC to boot cleanly using busybox here's 
a patch that enables -C device for kbd_mode and setfont. The patch is done so 
extending similar support for other console tools is fairly trivial.

Comments, thoughts or a message it's been applied to SVN are welcome :)

Thanks

Roy
