Writeback connectors represent writeback engines which can write the
CRTC output to a memory framebuffer. Add a writeback connector type and
related support functions.
Drivers should initialize a writeback connector with
drm_writeback_connector_init() which takes care of setting up all the
writeback-specific details on top of the normal functionality of
drm_connector_init().
Writeback connectors have a WRITEBACK_FB_ID property, used to set the
output framebuffer, PIXEL_FORMATS and PIXEL_FORMATS_SIZE used to expose
the supported writeback formats to userspace.
The drm_atomic core takes care of enforcing fairly strict semantics on
the use of writeback connectors. In short, a writeback connector can
only be included in a commit if it has both a framebuffer and a CRTC.
Conversely, you may not attach a framebuffer if the connector is not
attached to a CRTC, or if the CRTC is disabled.
When a framebuffer is attached to a writeback connector with the
WRITEBACK_FB_ID property, it is used only once (for the commit in which
it was included), and userspace can never read back the value of
WRITEBACK_FB_ID.
Changes since v1:
- Added drm_writeback.c + documentation
- Added helper to initialize writeback connector in one go
- Added core checks
- Squashed into a single commit
- Dropped the client cap
- Writeback framebuffers are no longer persistent

+/**
+ * DOC: overview
+ *
+ * Writeback connectors are used to expose hardware which can write the output
+ * from a CRTC to a memory buffer. They are used and act similarly to other
+ * types of connectors, with some important differences:
+ * - Writeback connectors don't provide a way to output visually to the user.
+ * - Writeback connectors should always report as "disconnected" (so that
+ * clients which don't understand them will ignore them).
+ * - Writeback connectors don't have EDID.
+ *
+ * Writeback connectors may only be attached to a CRTC when they have a
+ * framebuffer attached, and may only have a framebuffer attached when they are
+ * attached to a CRTC. The WRITEBACK_FB_ID property which sets the framebuffer
+ * applies only to a single commit (see below), which means that each and every
+ * commit which makes use of a writeback connector must set both its CRTC_ID and
+ * WRITEBACK_FB_ID. It also means that the connector's CRTC_ID must be
+ * explicitly cleared in order to make a subsequent commit which doesn't use
+ * writeback.
+ *
+ * Writeback connectors have several additional properties, which userspace
+ * can use to query and control them:
+ *
+ * "WRITEBACK_FB_ID":
+ * Write-only object property storing a DRM_MODE_OBJECT_FB: it stores the
+ * framebuffer to be written by the writeback connector. This property is
+ * similar to the FB_ID property on planes, but will always read as zero
+ * and is not preserved across commits.
+ * Userspace must set this property to an output buffer every time it
+ * wishes the buffer to get filled.
+ *
+ * "PIXEL_FORMATS":
+ * Immutable blob property to store the supported pixel formats table. The
+ * data is an array of u32 DRM_FORMAT_* fourcc values.
+ * Userspace can use this blob to find out what pixel formats are supported
+ * by the connector's writeback engine.
+ *
+ * "PIXEL_FORMATS_SIZE":
+ * Immutable unsigned range property storing the number of entries in the
+ * PIXEL_FORMATS array.
