Log:
sbus.c: fix TCX24 initialisation

Even though we boot in 24-bit enabled mode, OpenBIOS only uses the 8-bit
framebuffer. Hence we need to override the depth/linebytes obtained from
QEMU to force the graphics subsystem into 8-bit mode, which was what seems
to have been happening before this patch series.

Note: it seems strange that we have to update the package linebytes
property too, however Debian etch freezes if we don't set it to match the
8-bit framebuffer even though it correctly switches to 24-bit mode.
