this code needs revision, need a list of cards where this actually
works.

igfx and vesa can determine monitor timing information from ddc
and store the edid info for connected monitors in vga->edid[].
when monitor type cannot be found in vgadb, we consult the edid
information and make a mode based on the edid info.
this avoids having to maintain a vgadb entry for each monitor.
monitor can be set to "[width]x[height]@[freq]Hz" for a specific
edid setting. when not found, a mode is searched based on the
size.
so the following should work:
aux/vga -m 1366x768@60Hz -l 1366x768x32
aux/vga -m auto -l 1366x768x32

dbvesamode() modified the passed in size string in the process
of option parsing. this is a no-go because the string might be
constant in the read only section. provide cracksize() function
for the parsing and make a static copy.
do the vendor specific monitor detection in vbesnarf() instead
of vbecheck(). vbecheck()'s purpose is to check if vesa bios
service is avialable, not snarf graphics card state.
nvidiascale() was a no-op because it missed the vbecall() at
the end of the function. this means it was never tested so i
add the missing vbecall(), but disable nvidiascale for now
until someone tests this.
keep fancy stuff out of the Vbe structure. it is just there for
making bios calls, not keep state about the graphics card.

Prior to switching display, switch to text mode 3, which
is supported by anything, then set display, search for the
desired mode, load it if found. If not found, set the display
to the old one and switch to the old mode back.

Magic was discovered by abusing INT 10 on several machines
while switching cables back and forth and watching the end result.

Intel VBIOS seem to not update its state unless in graphical
mode, so set the scaling mode after loading new graphical mode.
