backend/drm: make commits without a buffer blocking
The wlr_output API requires compositors to wait for wlr_output.frame before submitting a new buffer. However, compositors can perform a commit which doesn't involve a buffer anytime. If the commit is a modeset, we set DRM_MODE_ATOMIC_ALLOW_MODESET and block until the commit is done. If it isn't, we currently always perform a non-blocking commit. This is an issue because a previous page-flip might still be in flight kernel-side, returning EBUSY. Fix this by using blocking commits when a buffer isn't submitted by the compositor. Closes: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/6962 References: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/issues/2239
