Remove the broken line wrapping handling in pdc_iodc_print().
It is broken in 3 ways :
- It doesn't keep track of the current screen position, it just
assumes that the new buffer will be printed at the begining of the
screen.
- It doesn't take in account that non printable characters won't
increase the current position on the screen.
- And last but not least, it triggers a kernel panic if a backspace
is the first char in the provided buffer :

Most terminals handle the line wrapping just fine. I've confirmed that
it works correctly on a C8000 with both vga and serial output.
