With quiet (or loglevel<=4), fbcon_init() suppresses the logo, so fullscreen_logo=1 shows no splash at all. A user who set fullscreen_logo=1 has explicitly asked for a splash, so don't let quiet override it.

Patch suggested by @flyeriNsomniac in #7081.

Tested on a Pi 500 with quiet fullscreen_logo=1 fullscreen_logo_name=logo.tga and no console=tty1: without the patch no splash is drawn; with it the full image is drawn with no text over it.

Fixes: #7081 (the quiet part; text drawn over the splash without quiet is unchanged)

fbcon_init() suppresses the logo when console_loglevel is at or below
CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET, so "quiet" (or loglevel<=4) on the command line
stops the fullscreen splash appearing at all. A user who has asked for
fullscreen_logo=1 has explicitly requested a splash, so don't let quiet
override it.

After this PR has landed in an APT-kernel, then raspberrypi/rpi-splash-screen-support@1b72b4c can be reverted, and that would then allow #7081 to be closed 🙂 ⛓️
