Implement new screen extension API.
This new API lets the loader examine DRI level extensions provided by the driver in a forward compatible manner. Much of the churn in the DRI interface is adding support for new extensions or removing old, unused extensions. This new extension mechanism lets the loader query the extensions provided by the driver and implement the extensions it knows about. Deprecating extensions is done by not exporting that extension in the list, which doesn't require keeping old function pointers around to preserve ABI.
