There are two console library instances: console and console_coff

the second is the current version we are using in system (see data/Tupfile.lua). See the history of 1st and 2nd we see that libraries/console has been NOT supported, it has outdated source code. Since no one uses (is it true?) outdated libraries/console it needs to be deleted from repo.

This is the PE version of console_coff. It and its example programs are used to test the PE patch by CleverMouse. If we still hope to implement PE in the kernel eventually, we need some userspace library and apps to test it.
