This series adds additional HP fonts to the SeaBIOS-hppa firmware.
And in the qemu artist graphics driver it:
- fixes the vertical postioning of the X11 cursor with HP-UX
- allows X11 to blank the screen (e.g. screensaver)
- allows the X11 driver to turn the X11 cursor on/off

I've applied these patches to latest git and done a quick test with my cut-down Linux
image and the latest HPPA image at https://parisc.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Qemu, and
confirmed I can successfully switch fonts without seeing any other graphical issues.
This isn't a particularly comprehensive test though, since I don't have a copy of
HP-UX and the latest HPPA image doesn't have X installed.
From a general QEMU perspective the patches look okay, except for the separate patch
posted after the original series which fails checkpatch due to styling issues around
the block comments. It is possible to do this directly on a checkout of the git
source tree with "./scripts/checkpatch.pl master..HEAD", or once you have the final
PR ready to go then a push to GitLab to confirm it passes CI should help locate any
potential problems.
I don't have any knowledge of the internals of the artist framebuffer, but feel free
to add an:

when you respin the v2. It's not far off a Tested-by but I don't feel I can offer
that without being able to test a HP-UX X environment.
