Add support for DRM_FORMAT_C8 to vesadrm. The new pixel-format
description PIXEL_FORMAT_C8 describes the layout. Vesadrm's helpers
vesadrm_fill_palette_lut() and vesadrm_load_palette_lut() set the
hardware palette according to the CRTC's output format.
The driver emulates XRGB8888 by converting the source buffer to
RGB332 and using the resulting 256 colors as index into the hardware
palette. The hardware palette converts back to RGB during scanout.
This has no overhead compared to other format conversion, but allows
common userspace, such as Wayland compositors, to operate on the
display.

Add support for screen_info setups with VIDEO_TYPE_EFI. Provide the
minimum functionality of reading modes, updating and clearing the display.
There is existing support for these displays provided by simpledrm with
CONFIG_SYSFB_SIMPLEFB=y. Using efidrm over simpledrm will allows for the
mapping of video memory with correct caching. Simpledrm always assumes WC
caching, while fully cached memory is possible with efidrm. Efidrm will
also allow for the use of additional functionality provided by EFI, such
as EDID information.
In addition to efidrm, add struct pixel_format plus initializer macros.
The type and macros describe pixel formats in a generic way on order to
find the DRM format from the screen_info settings. Similar existing code
in SIMPLEFB_FORMATS and fbdev is not really what is needed in efidrm,
but SIMPLEFB_FORMATS can later be converted to struct pixel_format.
v4:
- depend on CONFIG_EFI
- disallow module for now as efi_mem_desc_lookup() is not exported
v3:
- depend on !SYSFB_SIMPLEFB (Javier)
