m68k: Fix lost column on framebuffer debug console

Move the cursor position rightward after rendering the character,
not before. This avoids complications that arise when the recursive
console_putc call has to wrap the line and/or scroll the display.
This also fixes the linewrap bug that crops off the rightmost column.

When the cursor is at the bottom of the display, a linefeed will not
move the cursor position further downward. Instead, the display scrolls
upward. Avoid the repeated add/subtract sequence by way of a single
subtraction at the initialization of console_struct_num_rows.
