da3baba980 backend/native: Only disable KMS modifiers for i915
The intel DRM driver is known for not being able to handle multi head
setups when KMS modifiers are enabled, due to the implicitly selected
modifiers, while being more suitable for single head setups, cause
bandwidth issues when a certain number of monitor times resolution and
refresh rate is configured.

We don't yet support automatically finding a combination of modifiers
that work, and have because of this disabled KMS modifiers unless the
driver actually needs it.

Lets flip this configuration the other way around, changing the current
udev rule to decide wen to *disable* KMS modifier support, as it so that
only the Intel driver has this problem, while on the other hand, there
several drivers that requires modifiers to function at all.

9b9b912765 backends: force enable modifiers on tagged devices
Some devices can't scanout to linear buffers directly as the hw is not
capable of eg rendering into a linear depth buffer.

Add code to force kms-modifiers on udev taged devices.
