Will be needed for queries and drm event-driven throttling.
As a benefit, they help avoid stale user-space fence handles.

This is needed before we introduce the fence objects.
Otherwise this will be even more confusing. The plan is to use the following:
seqno: A 32-bit sequence number that may be passed in the fifo.
marker: Objects, carrying a seqno, that track fifo submission time. They
are used for fifo lag based throttling.
fence objects: Kernel space objects, possibly accessible from user-space and
carrying a 32-bit seqno together with signaled status.

Since we don't allow user-space to map the fifo anymore,
add a parameter to get fifo hw version and
an ioctl to copy the 3D capabilities.

This was previously used by user-space to check whether a fence
sequence had passed or not.
With fence objects that's not needed anymore.

It doesn't seem like its needed. If this turns out to be an incorrect

The host may change the layout and, since the change is
communicated to the master, the master needs a way to
communicate the change to the kernel driver.
The minor version number is bumped to advertize the
availability of this feature.

Even if this bumps the version to 1 it does not mean the driver is
out of staging. From what we know this is the last backwards
incompatible change to the driver.

When time-based throttling is implemented, we need to bump minor.
When the old way of detecting scanout is removed, we need to bump major.
In the meantime, this change should not break existing user-space.

This commit adds the vmwgfx driver for the VWware Virtual GPU aka SVGA.
The driver is under staging the same as Nouveau and Radeon KMS. Hopefully
the 2D ioctls are bug free and don't need changing, so that part of the
API should be stable. But there there is a pretty big chance that the 3D API
will change in the future.
