I'll have to do some more fixes there, since the monochrome logo is used not
only on monochrome displays, but on all other displays with bits_per_pixel < 4
Since the pixel data in fb_image are colormap indices, they have to reflect the
correct `black' and `white' colors on such displays.

E.g. on amifb (which supports all bits_per_pixel from 1 through 8) the logo
showed up in black-and-blue with bits_per_pixel == 3, cfr. the first two
entries of {red,green,blue}8[] in fbcmap.c.
