Mention more hardware being supported.
Update the list of unsupported framebuffers: there's no point in
mentioning VME framebuffers, or SBus framebuffers which were never
supported on the UltraSPARC and will probably not work on them
(assuming they would fit in the case, something the cgtwelve can't do).
Make more clear, however, that the kernel will be able to use the
OpenPROM console whatever the framebuffer is.
