drm/vmwgfx: Port the framebuffer code to drm fb helpers
Instead of using vmwgfx specific framebuffer implementation use the drm fb helpers. There's no change in functionality, the only difference is a reduction in the amount of code inside the vmwgfx module. drm fb helpers do not deal correctly with changes in crtc preferred mode at runtime, but the old fb code wasn't dealing with it either. Same situation applies to high-res fb consoles - the old code was limited to 1176x885 because it was checking for legacy/deprecated memory limites, the drm fb helpers are limited to the initial resolution set on fb due to first problem (drm fb helpers being unable to handle hotplug crtc preferred mode changes). This also removes the kernel config for disabling fb support which hasn't been used or supported in a very long time.
