Staging: add lcd-panel driver

This adds the lcd-panel parallel port driver to the staging tree.

See the file, drivers/staging/panel/TODO for what needs to be fixed up
in order for this to be properly merged into the rest of the kernel
tree.

Some LCDs allow you to define up to 8 characters, mapped to ASCII
characters 0 to 7. The escape code to define a new character is
'\e[LG' followed by one digit from 0 to 7, representing the character
number, and up to 8 couples of hex digits terminated by a semi-colon
(';'). Each couple of digits represents a line, with 1-bits for each
illuminated pixel with LSB on the right. Lines are numberred from the
top of the character to the bottom. On a 5x7 matrix, only the 5 lower
bits of the 7 first bytes are used for each character. If the string
is incomplete, only complete lines will be redefined. Here are some
examples :
printf "\e[LG0010101050D1F0C04;" => 0 = [enter]
printf "\e[LG1040E1F0000000000;" => 1 = [up]
printf "\e[LG2000000001F0E0400;" => 2 = [down]
printf "\e[LG3040E1F001F0E0400;" => 3 = [up-down]
printf "\e[LG40002060E1E0E0602;" => 4 = [left]
printf "\e[LG500080C0E0F0E0C08;" => 5 = [right]
printf "\e[LG60016051516141400;" => 6 = "IP"
printf "\e[LG00103071F1F070301;" => big speaker
printf "\e[LG00002061E1E060200;" => small speaker
