[PATCH v2] drm: Implement drmHandleEvent2()

[Tobias Jakobi <tjakobi@math.uni-bielefeld.de>]

Basically this is an extended version of drmHandleEvent().

drmHandleEvent() only handles core events (like e.g. page flips),
but since kernel DRM drivers might use vendor-specific events
to signal userspace the completion of pending jobs, etc., its
desirable to provide a way to handle these without putting
vendor-specific code in the core libdrm.

To use this you provide drmHandleEvent2() with a function that
handles your non-core events.

The signature of that function looks like this:
void vendor(int fd, struct drm_event *e, void *ctx);

'fd' is the DRM file descriptor, 'e' the non-core event
and 'ctx' the event context (casted to void).

This way we don't have to maintain a copy of drmHandleEvent()
in the vendor code.

v2: Remove the opaque pointer, since this can be better
    handled with a container approach.
