Add a compile-in option for Terminus 10x18 bitmap console font to improve readability on modern laptop displays. On modern 13-16 inch laptop displays with high pixel density, common scaled resolutions like 1280x800 and 1440x900 are widely used. At these resolutions, VGA 8x16 is too small and difficult to read for extended periods, while Terminus 16x32 is too large, providing only 25-28 rows. The existing 10x18 font has poor readability. Terminus 10x18 provides improved readability with its clean, fixed-width design while maintaining practical row counts (44-50 rows). A comfortable and readable built-in font for early boot messages, kernel panics or whenever userspace is unavailable. The font was converted from standard Terminus ter-i18b.psf using psftools and formatted to match kernel font conventions. This patch is non-intrusive, no options are enabled by default so most users won't notice a thing.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
