I have tested it in the following way:
- launch OVMF in Linux and connect with vnc
- change resolution via the form browser (Device Manager -> OVMF
Platform Configuration) from the default 640x480 to the 1920x1080
- "reset"
- after the reset the system will boot to the 1920x1080 resolution and
text mode 80x25
- check "mode" command output
Before the commit this command displays only these modes:
```
Shell> mode
Available modes for console output device.
Col 80 Row 25 *
Col 80 Row 50
Col 100 Row 31
```
But with this commit the high resolution modes are present in the output:
```
Shell> mode
Available modes for console output device.
Col 80 Row 25 *
Col 80 Row 50
Col 100 Row 31
Col 128 Row 40
Col 160 Row 42
Col 240 Row 56
```
And in my case setting the appropriate "mode 240 56" at runtime works just fine:
```
Shell> mode 240 56
```
After that the text output starts using the full screen.
Best regards,
Konstantin Aladyshev
