Subject: [PATCH 07/12] vt/consolemap: do font sum unsigned

The constant 20 makes the font sum computation signed which can lead to
sign extensions and signed wraps. It's not much of a problem as we build
with -fno-strict-overflow. But if we ever decide not to, be ready, so
switch the constant to unsigned.
