drm_log is a simple logger that uses the drm_client API to print the
kmsg boot log on the screen. This is not a full replacement to fbcon,
as it will only print the kmsg. It will never handle user input, or a
terminal because this is better done in userspace.
Design decisions:
* It uses the drm_client API, so it should work on all drm drivers
from the start.
* It doesn't scroll the message, that way it doesn't need to redraw
the whole screen for each new message.
It also means it doesn't have to keep drawn messages in memory, to
redraw them when scrolling.
* It uses the new non-blocking console API, so it should work well
with PREEMPT_RT.
This patch also adds a Kconfig menu to select the drm client to use.
It can be overwritten on the kernel command line with:
drm_client_lib.active=log or drm_client_lib.active=fbdev

DRM drivers invoke drm_client_setup() to set up in-kernel clients.
No driver should call drm_fbdev_client_setup() directly. Therefore,
unexport the symbol and move the declaration to the internal header
drm_client_internal.h.

Move the public header file drm_client_setup.h to the clients/
subdirectory and update all drivers. No functional changes.

Just move some files around to keep source code well organized. Plus
fix a type in the help text of CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_LEAK_PHYS_SMEM. No
functional changes.
