Will be checked and possibly fixed for v2.

Even though that might work, it's asks for problems. ast sets a
preferred depth of 24, when it actually wants 32 for most buffers. I'd
rather just unexport the _internal function until we need it and go with
the max_bpp of 4.

To me, preferred_bpp looks like a fossil from the early days of DRM. (?)
If we want to do something meaningful to auto-detect max_bpp, we should
walk over primary planes and compute the value from the planes' formats
arrays. But for now, the result will always be 4, so there's really no need.

Best regard
