    CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR, CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT and
    CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME are not used by any board. The implementation is not
    great and stands in the way of a refactor of i8042. Drop these for now.
    They can be re-introduced quite easily later, perhaps with driver-model
    real-time-clock (RTC) support.
    
    When reintroducing, it might be useful to make a few changes:
    - Blink time would be more useful than blink count
    - The confusing #ifdefs should be avoided
    - The time functions should support driver model
    - It would be best keyed off console_tstc() or some similar idle loop
        rather than a particular input driver (i8042 in this case)
