radeonsi: turn SDMA IBs into de-facto preambles of GFX IBs

Draw calls no longer flush SDMA IBs. r600_need_dma_space is
responsible for synchronizing execution between both IBs.

Initial buffer clears and fast clears will stay unflushed in the SDMA IB
(up to 64 MB) as long as the GFX IB isn't flushed either.
