xf86drmMode: add drmIsKMS
If a device has a primary node, it doesn't necessarily mean it's suitable for KMS usage. For instance, render-only drivers also expose primary nodes. The check is extracted from Weston [1]. The motivation for this new function is two-fold: - Avoid an unnecessary GETRESOURCES call. To check whether a primary node is suitable for KMS, we don't actually need to retrieve the object IDs we just need to check the counts. - Avoid confusion in user-space and make sure user-space implements the check properly. For instance, wlroots doesn't [2]: it uses drmGetVersion which succeeds with render-only drivers.
