When the driver of a given reconfiguration mode is builtin, libdaxctl
isn't able to build a module lookup list using kmod. However, it doesn't
need to fail in this case, as it is acceptable for a driver to be
builtin.
Indeed, since even with a modalias lookup list, we still have to resolve
the target driver based on the mode using the module name, so relying on
the modalias lookup to keep us impervious to module name changes is
already flawed.
Simplify module loading greatly by removing the modalias lookups, and
directly getting the module from a named lookup. This transparently
fixes the problem when the driver may be builtin instead of being a
module.

v2:
- Remove modalias lookup lists entirely, and perform a simple name
based lookup (Dan)
- Fix the module expectation in the daxctl-devices unit test.
