Disable characters >=U+F000. These do not work properly.

Explanation from Alexey Gladkov:

The kbd value is unsigned short [1] and take a look how kernel gets
a type [2]. The last bytes are occupied by type.

[1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/include/uapi/linux/kd.h?id=06dd3dfeea60e2a6457a6aedf97afc8e6d2ba497#n103

The problem in the kernel. In the kb_value there is no room to store such
values.
