MdeModulePkg/GraphicsConsoleDxe: Change default CursorVisible to FALSE

REF: https://github.com/pftf/RPi4/issues/115

GraphicsConsoleDxe defaults the ConOut Mode.CursorVisible to TRUE.
However, the driver never draws the cursor during init. This results
in the first call to disable the cursor (using ConOut->EnableCursor(FALSE))
to actually draw the cursor on the screen, as the logic in FlushCursor
depends on the Mode.CursorVisible state to determine if it should draw or
erase the cursor.

Fix by changing the default CursorVisible in this driver to FALSE.

displaying on top of the platform logo)
