Remove CONFIG_VT_UNICODE 

Since default_utf8 is already a sysfs attribute, having an extra
CONFIG_VT_UNICODE compile-time option is redundant, since sysfs attributes can
be set at boot and run time.

Also let Linux VCs default to UTF-8 (as per the discussion at
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/6/99

).
