output: add wlr_output_state.allow_artifacts
When starting up, the compositor might call wlr_output_set_mode() with a mode which is already the current one. wlroots will detect this and make the wlr_output_set_mode() call a no-op. During the next wlr_output_commit() call, wlroots will perform an atomic commit without the ALLOW_MODESET flag. This is an issue, because some drivers need ALLOW_MODESET even if the mode is the same. For instance, if the FB stride or modifier changed, some drivers require a modeset. Add a new flag "allow_artifacts" which is set when the compositor calls mode-setting functions. Use this flag to figure out whether we want to perform atomic commits with ALLOW_MODESET. (The name "allow_artifacts" is picked because ALLOW_MODESET is a misnomer, see [1].)
