I noticed the similar "display" command has been removed back to 2019
in commit 005a804d0f3 (cmd: remove unused `display` command,
2019-05-21).

To me, It doesn't seem a good idea to add it back, at least more
discussion is necessary for it.

Could the driver be implemented as a stdio device instead? And could it
be described in devicetree to avoid non-DM code as much as possible?
