Daniel Mack f324edc85e console: make blank timeout value a boot option
The console blank timer is currently hardcoded to 10*60 seconds which
might be annoying on systems with no input devices attached to wake up the
console again.  Especially during development, disabling the screen saver
can be handy - for example when debugging the root fs mount mechanism or
other scenarios where no userspace program could be started to do that at
runtime from userspace.

This patch defines a core_param for the variable in charge which allows
users to entirely disable the blank feature at boot time by setting it 0.
The value can still be overwritten at runtime using the standard ioctl
call - this just allows to conditionally change the default.
