gallium: Add a dumb drm/kms winsys backed swrast provider
Add a new winsys and target that can be used with a dri2 state tracker
and loader instead of drisw. This allows to use gbm as a dri2/image
loader and avoid the extra copy from the backbuffer to the shadow
frontbuffer.
The new driver is called "kms_swrast", and is loaded by gbm as a
fallback, because it is only useful with the gbm platform (as no buffer
sharing is possible)
To force select the driver set the environment variable
GBM_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE
[Emil Velikov]
- Rebase on top of gallium megadriver.
- s/text/test/ in configure.ac (Spotted by Andreas Pokorny).
- Add scons support for winsys/sw/kms-dri and fix the build.
- Provide separate DriverAPI, due to different InitScreen hook.
