se: I fixed a bug where parse_uefi_con_out would return serial if '8be4df61=
-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c-ConOut' was unset. Is it set?  Now we return V=
ideo console if we fine evidence there's a video console.

It is stable/13.
I tried 14-current, and the same change to loader was needed (merging
OpenBSD's start.S and ldscript.arm64, and commenting out comconsole).
Even with these change, the console defaults to serial, so I changed
parse_uefi_con_out() to always return 0.
Still, it stops at the same point. The kernel does not seem to boot.

Running efi-show from the loader prompt did not show
'8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c-ConOut'
The variable name containing 'ConOut' were:

global NV,BS,RS ConOut =3D
VenHw(9042A9DE-23DC-4A38-96FB-7ADED080516A),/VenHw(857A8741-0EEC-43BD-0482-=
27D14ED47D72)/Uart(115200,8,N,1)
global NV,BS,RS ConOutDev =3D
VenHw(9042A9DE-23DC-4A38-96FB-7ADED080516A),/VenHw(857A8741-0EEC-43BD-0482-=

 But if the kernel is being told the wrong console, then it could also be b=
