Emma Anholt 870e233ca5 vulkan/wsi/display: Avoid holding drm master for the device's fd.
We get a display fd passed in to us through wsi_display_init_wsi(), and
when that was the first open of the display device with no previous DRM
master, it got master privs and we saved that as the display fd to use for
KHR_display.  However, that meant that no other client can get DRM master,
preventing things like vkAcquireDRMDisplayEXT() users from getting a
master fd to pass in to us.

Instead, we can drop master at device init time, and pick it back up when
a VK_KHR_display swapchain is created that uses that fd.

This allows dEQP-VK.wsi.acquire_drm and dEQP-VK.wsi.direct_drm CTS tests
to run, which was previously impossible (those tests try to create a
custom VK instance, while the CTS already has an instance that had been
created with KHR_display enabled, so they're not the first open of the
fd).  It also means that you could successfully implement VT switching
between a KHR_display client and other userspace DRM clients.  Also, we
can finally implement the text about vkAcquireDRMDisplayEXT's drmFd
needing to match the device's fd.

The risk of this change, though, is if you're implementing a compositor,
and your clients have a chance to open the DRM fd before you've created
your swapchain, they may inadvertently have master and DOS you.  However,
this is no different than the previous situation, where someone with
permissions to open DRM could hold master and DOS you already.
