The default limit of 1ms might be too short if the compositor
calls liftoff_output_apply() early in the vblank cycle, or too
long if the refresh rate is high. The compositor is in a better
spot to decide how much time should be spent on atomic tests, so
add an option for that.

When the caller wants to perform a modeset, they will need to pass
DRM_MODE_ATOMIC_ALLOW_MODESET in the atomic commit flags, otherwise the driver
will fail the commit. libliftoff also needs to provide these flags in its
test-only commits.
This fixes a misunderstanding of the DRM API. Only a regular commit applies
properties.
Fixes: b16078769e ("test/libdrm_mock: a test-only commit applies properties")
The previous mock library assumed the DRM client would always set all
properties in the atomic request. However, if a previous test-only commit
has set a property, there's no need to set it again.
Accomodate for this in libdrm_mock. This will be useful when we'll skip
setting properties that haven't changed in libliftoff.

Compositors need to drive multiple connectors, each with its own vblank timings.
For each device, there's one separate rendering loop per output.
It's not possible to call liftoff_device_apply each time we want to submit a new
frame to one output, because this could touch another's output state, submitting
a new frame there in the process. When the other output will submit a new frame,
it'll get EBUSY (can't submit two frames without waiting for vblank).

Start from scratch since we may be able to come up with a better allocation
(if the layer made another layer fall back to composition for instance).
