Instead of always swapping buffers and flipping the back buffer, make it
possible to scan out a provided buffer directly without swapping any EGL
buffers.
A buffer is passed as an object implementing the empty CoglScanout
interface. It is only possible to do this in the native backend; and the
interface is implemented by MetaDrmBufferGbm. When directly scanned out,
instead of calling gbm_surface_lock_front_buffer() to get the gbm_bo and
fbid, get it directly from the MetaDrmBufferGbm, and use that to create
the page flip KMS update.

Surface buffers are created with meta_drm_buffer_new_acquire(), taking a
gbm_surface acquiring the gbm itself, and meta_drm_buffer_new_take()
that takes over ownership of a passed gbm_bo.

With all the three paths this is quite a handful of code, and it was mostly
duplicated in two places. A follow-up patch would need to introduce a third
copy of it. Therefore move the code into a helper function.
There are two behavioral changes:
- The format error now prints the string code as well, because it is easy to
read.
- The g_debug() in init_dumb_fb() is removed. Did not seem useful.

There is no reason why we should have an internal type enum when we have
all the infrastructure to just use multiple GObject types. Also there
was no code sharing between the old "types", the only common API was
getting the framebuffer ID, so lets make that a vfunc.
