Hi!

vmwgfx libdrm is pretty obsolete and AFAIK not used by anyone.
As such, it's unnecessary to release a new version of libdrm each time
the vmwgfx header is updated, and I'd like to avoid that dependency.
Better to keep the local copies in the gallium winsys and the DDX. Since
the ioctl interface is backwards compatible, it doesn't really matter if
the headers are slightly out of sync.
