dri2: Event driven buffer validation.

When a buffer invalidation event is received from the X server, the
"invalidate" hook of the DRI2 flush extension is executed: A generic
implementation (dri2InvalidateDrawable) is provided that just bumps
the "pStamp" sequence number in __DRIdrawableRec.

For old servers not supporting buffer invalidation events, the
invalidate hook will be called before flushing the fake front/back
buffer (that's typically once per frame -- not a lot worse than the
situation we were in before).

No effort has been made on preserving backwards compatibility with
version 2 of the flush extension, but I think it's acceptable because
AFAIK no released stack is making use of it.
