3d90c62548 vga: stop passing pointers to vga_draw_line* functions
Instead pass around the address (aka offset into vga memory).
Add vga_read_* helper functions which apply vbe_size_mask to
the address, to make sure the address stays within the valid
range, similar to the cirrus blitter fixes (commits ffaf857778
and 026aeffcb4).

Impact:  DoS for privileged guest users.  qemu crashes with
a segfault, when hitting the guard page after vga memory
allocation, while reading vga memory for display updates.

e657d8ef3c vga: Rename vga_template.h to vga-helpers.h
It's no longer a template, we only instanciate the file once.

Keep it a #included file so the functions remain static.
