[PATCH v2 20/60] vidconsole: Avoid kerning against an unrelated character

[Simon Glass]

When the cursor position changes, kerning should not be used for the
next character, since it can make the first displayed character shuffle
left or right a bit.

Clear the kern character when setting the position.
