Introduces two new methods to retrieve a human readable representation of a
format modifier:
drmGetFormatModifierName() - returns a format modifier as a string,
from a token modifier
drmGetFormatModifierVendor() - returns the vendor as a string, from a
token modifier
and the fourcc_mod_get_vendor macro that returns the vendor.
New format modifiers added in drm_fourcc.h uapi kernel header should be
sync'ed up with libdrm and should include a human readable
representation for that format modifier, in order to display it
correctly as a string.
That happens with the help of a python script that reads up drm_fourcc
header file and outputs a static table comprised of token modifiers
alongside a vendor table (Suggested-by Simon Ser <contact@emersion.fr>).
The reason for doing it in libdrm is to have a unified place instead of each
user of libdrm having a way to keep track of the format modifiers.
With this patch, modetest has also been modified to make use of it.

DocBook makes it hard to write and maintain docs. Hopefully
reStructuredText can make this less painful.
The man pages were converted from DocBook to reStructuredText via
Pandoc:
pandoc -s -f docbook -t rst -o man/drm.7.rst man/drm.xml
And then manual editing to fixup e.g. references to other man pages. To
compare the result with the DocBook version, this command was used:
rst2man man/drm-kms.7.rst | man -l -

Shaves about 50% off the build time on both debian and arch builds.
(yeah, I know, it's very small anyway compared to mesa, but we might
want to add more things in the future)
This also makes the build no longer dependent on external websites:
once the image is build, only fdo-internal services are used.
