When there is no user driver or any matching display drivers we fall
back to the default driver. This patch lets us have a list of default
drivers instead of just one. The drivers are loaded in turn and we
attempt to initialize the display. If it fails we unload the driver
and move on to the next one.
Compared to the display driver mechanism, this avoids loading a number
of drivers and then only using one. Also, we call Initialize to see
if the driver will work instead of relying on Probe. To know for sure
that a driver will work, Probe really have to do a full Initialize, so
we will just use Initialize directly.
Rename _eglPreloadFile to _eglLoaderFile, and _eglPreloadFile to
_eglLoaderFile. There are several _eglPreload* functions. The
callbacks do not belong to them and it should be better to give them a
different prefix.
EGL_DRIVERS_PATH gives a list of colon-separated directories. The given
directories will be searched when preloading drivers.
This is based on Mike Stroyan's patch, which honors the variable in
_eglPreloadDisplayDrivers. It is extended to honor the variable also in
_eglPreloadUserDriver and _eglPreloadDefaultDriver in this version.
Add a platform specific function to turn a library name to a library
path. It is used to convert EGL_DRIVER or the default driver to a
library path that can be loaded.
With the addition egl_x11_swrast, egl_softpipe is sort of deprecated.
The new driver serves the same purpose as egl_softpipe does. It is
based on egl_g3d and provides more features.
In current design, multiple drivers will probe the same display and the
best driver is determined. The cache can be used by the drivers to
store and share the probed data.
It can be used to load the user driver specified by EGL_DRIVER, or a set
of drivers specified by EGL_DISPLAY, or the default driver, and in that
order.
This adds error checking to the synchronization primitives. And
eglWaitGL is now implemented by eglWaitClient.

This allows an EGL driver to be compiled together with libEGL.so. It
eliminates the need to specify a driver, or support module loading on
new platforms.

The real difference is that the driver suffix is now appended. This
also fixes an annoying bug that EGL_DRIVER could not specify the path to
a driver because a suffix was always appended.

libX11 is used to determine the screen number, which is in turned used
to determine the DRI driver. However, the sysfs interface for
determining the DRI driver is gone, and no working driver depends on
this mechanism.
Display string parsing is moved to a new function,
_eglSplitDisplayString.

Move some fields of _EGLDriver to _EGLDisplay. It also becomes
unnecessary to pass _EGLDisplay to drivers when _eglMain is called.

Driver is chosen and preloaded when eglGetDisplay is called. Later when
eglInitialize is called, the same driver is matched to initialize the
display. Also, add new, but unused, hooks to EGLDriver to allow a
driver to probe a display or unload itself.

The motivation is so that drivers do not need to look up and check for
bad display, context, and etc. It also becomes unnecessary for drivers
to call the link functions.
This commit makes eglapi.[ch] do the lookup and check. As a result, the
driver API is overhauled, and almost all sources and drivers need
update. The updates are mainly find and replace with human brains.
