Using GBM to import DRM dumb buffers tends to not work well. By
using GBM we're calling some driver-specific functions in Mesa.
These functions check whether Mesa can work with the buffer.
Sometimes Mesa has requirements which differ from DRM dumb buffers
and the GBM import will fail (e.g. on amdgpu).
Instead, drop GBM and use drmPrimeFDToHandle directly. But there's
a twist: BO handles are not ref'counted by the kernel and need to
be ref'counted in user-space [1]. libdrm usually performs this
bookkeeping and is used under-the-hood by Mesa.
We can't re-use libdrm for this task without using driver-specific
APIs. So let's just re-implement the ref'counting logic in wlroots.
The wlroots implementation is inspired from amdgpu's in libdrm [2].
