A previous commit enabled display of driver-internal kernel BO sizes
through the device file's fdinfo interface.
Expand the description of the relevant driver-specific key:value pairs
with the definitions of the new drm-*-internal ones.

+Possible `drm-*-internal` key names are: `total`, `active` and `resident`.
