We do not know at addfb2 time that it'll be a 3d mode buffer, and
drivers might want to know that to internally assign the buffers to
left/right buffer handle pointers. Similar to how we already have a
flag for when the buffer is interlaced, which atm we don't support
(since we only support scan-out of progressive buffers to interlaced
modes, not interlaced to interlaced). So imo a flag here makes sense
so that the driver can properly check constraints and make sense of
the handles.
