fbdev: remove cyblafb driver
A tridentfb driver has all the functionality of the cyblafb driver without the bugs of the latter. Changes to the tridentfb driver: - FBINFO_READS_FAST added to the tridentfb. The cyblafb used a blitter for scrolling which is faster than color expansion on Cyberblade chipsets. The blitter is slower on a discrete Blade3D core. Use the blitter for scrolling in the tridentfb only for integrated Blade3D cores. Now, scrolling speed is about equal for the tridentfb and the cyblafb. - a copyright notice addition is done on request of Jani Monoses (the first author of the tridentfb). Tested on AGP Blade3D card and PCChips M787CLR motherboard: VIA C3 cpu + VT8601 north bridge (aka Cyberblade/i1).
