Add a way to send DRM events down the gpu fifo by attaching them to
fence objects. This may be useful for Xserver swapbuffer throttling and
page-flip done notifications.
Bump version to 2.2 to signal the availability of the FENCE_EVENT ioctl.

Will be needed for queries and drm event-driven throttling.
As a benefit, they help avoid stale user-space fence handles.

This is needed before we introduce the fence objects.
Otherwise this will be even more confusing. The plan is to use the following:
seqno: A 32-bit sequence number that may be passed in the fifo.
marker: Objects, carrying a seqno, that track fifo submission time. They
are used for fifo lag based throttling.
fence objects: Kernel space objects, possibly accessible from user-space and
carrying a 32-bit seqno together with signaled status.

The throttle_us member in the execbuf argument is now honored.
If the member is 0, no waiting for lag will occur, which
guarantees backwards compatibility with well-behaved clients.
