contrib/: expand font setting capabilities

ZFSBootMenu binary releases use a default font size that's barely
suitable for 2k screens and entirely unsuitable for 4k screens. In an
attempt to fix this, a new script has been added that introduces
automatic console font resizing.

Utilizing the Terminus font, we can pick a range of bold font sizes to
better match screen resolutions. Working backwards from the largest to
the smallest, the hook simply runs `setfont` and then checks if COLUMNS
is at least 100 characters. If it is not, the next font is selected and
it tries again.

Based on documentation, Terminus fonts prefixed with a 'v' have all
mappings/codepages in them; so they should support the maximal number of
languages.

contrib/20-console-autosize.sh is included in all release and recovery
images. The automatic font setting behavior can be disabled via
zbm.autosize=(0|off).

contrib/console-init.sh has been renamed to ensure it precedes this
hook, since 10-console-init.sh calls console_init from Dracut, which is
hard-coded to set a console font. Since console_init also performs setting
a keymap, it should always be executed.

The legacy behavior of setting a font via rd.vconsole.font
overrides/disables zbm.autosize.
