This is an API breakage only.

The GEM flags are much more descriptive for what we need. Since this makes
bufmgr_fake rather device-specific, move it to the intel common directory.
We've wanted to do device-specific stuff to it before.

Makes state emission into a 2 phase, prepare sets things up and accounts
the size of all referenced buffer objects. The emit stage then actually
does the batchbuffer touching for emitting the objects.
There is an assert in dri_emit_reloc if a reloc occurs for a buffer
that hasn't been accounted yet.

We have two consumers of relocations. One is static state buffers, which
want the same relocation every time. The other is the batchbuffer, which gets
thrown out immediately after submit. This lets us reduce repeated computation
for static state buffers, and clean up the code by moving relocations nearer
to where the state buffer is computed.

The user-space suballocator that was used avoided relocation computations by
using the general and surface state base registers and allocating those types
of buffers out of pools built on top of single buffer objects. It also
avoided calls into the buffer manager for these small state allocations, since
only one buffer object was being used.
However, the buffer allocation cost appears to be low, and with relocation
caching, computing relocations for buffers is essentially free. Additionally,
implementing the suballocator required a don't-fence-subdata flag to disable
waiting on buffer maps so that writing new data didn't block on rendering using
old data, and careful handling when mapping to update old data (which we need
to do for unavoidable relocations with FBOs). More importantly, when the
suballocator filled, it had no replacement algorithm and just threw out all
of the contents and forced them to be recomputed, which is a significant cost.
This is the first step, which just changes the buffer type, but doesn't yet
improve the hash table to not result in full recompute on overflow. Because
the buffers are all allocated out of the general buffer allocator, we can
no longer use the general/surface state bases to avoid relocations, and they
are set to 0 instead.

In the process, fix some alignment issues:
- Scratch space allocation was aligned into units of 1KB, while the allocation
wanted units of bytes, so we never allocated enough space for scratch.
- GRF register count was programmed as ALIGN(val - 1, 16) / 16 instead of
ALIGN(val, 16) / 16 - 1, which overcounted for val != 16n+1.

This driver comes from Tungsten Graphics, with a few further modifications by
Intel.
