Assume the GPU is VGA compatible when running in text-mode.
Advertise VGA modes using SeaVGABios' stdvga driver.
Microsoft Windows relies on graphics mode 12 as last resort when
running in text mode, even when not advertised.
Allows Windows 7 to boot in 640x480 and 16 colors mode using the
VgaSave driver.
Allows Windows 7 to show the loading bar splash screen.
Known issues:
The palette seems wrong, as colors are swapped ( blue is red, ... ).
