Thanks to Charles Hannum for complaining and inspiring me to hack this
together.
calling interface (via a grapple in locore.s) is:

still some generalization to do (moving this to a better named location,
cleaning up #if tests from NAPM > 0 to something else to allow easy
sharing by other drivers)
Thanks to Charles Hannum for complaining about the previous BIOS grapple
and inspiring me to hack this one together.
as a console, initalize as white-on-black so console messages are legible.
(Sean Davidson reports that rcons still messes up the display, perhaps
due to using the wrong pixel depth).
1. Start at the specified entry instead of entry 0.
2. Use the blue value instead of the green when setting the blue color entry.
3. Don't use the starting index again for storing the saved entry - the cmap
pointer was previously initialized using the starting index. This fixes
a hard hang on the maxine when console output is done after calls to
set the color map (usually by the X server).
