drm/atomic: Prepare drm_modeset_lock infrastructure for interruptible waiting, v2.



When we want to make drm_atomic_commit interruptible, there are a lot of
places that call the lock function, which we don't have control over.

Rather than trying to convert every single one, it's easier to toggle
interruptible waiting per acquire_ctx. If drm_modeset_acquire_init is
called with DRM_MODESET_ACQUIRE_INTERRUPTIBLE, then we will perform
interruptible waits in drm_modeset_lock and drm_modeset_backoff.

Changes since v1:
- Fix locking example in drm_modeset_lock.c to be compatible
  with interruptible waiting (xexaxo) and make it default.
  Uninterruptible waiting shouldn't happen except in corner cases,
  but the example will still apply if the flag is removed.
- Add drm_modeset_lock_single_interruptible() to documentation.
- Fix dead link to removed drm_modeset_lock_interruptible() in
  drm_modeset_lock().
