Revert "console ASCII glyph 1:1 mapping"

This reverts commit 1c55f187.

Ingo Brueckl was assuming that reverting to 1:1 mapping for chars >= 128
was not useful, but it happens to be: due to the limitations of the
Linux console, when a blind user wants to read BIG5 on it, he has no
other way than loading a font without SFM and let the 1:1 mapping permit
the screen reader to get the BIG5 encoding.

This would make absolutely no sense with Unicode in mind, This would make absolutely no sense with Unicode in mind,
but do this for ASCII characters since a font may lack but do this for ASCII characters since a font may lack
