vmwgfx shared very elaborate memory accounting with ttm. It was moved
from ttm to vmwgfx in change
f07069da6b4c ("drm/ttm: move memory accounting into vmwgfx v4")
but because of complexity it was hard to maintain. Some parts of the code
weren't freeing memory correctly and some were missing accounting all
together. While those would be fairly easy to fix the fundamental reason
for memory accounting in the driver was the ability to invoke shrinker
which is part of TTM code as well (with support for unified memory
hopefully coming soon).
That meant that vmwgfx had a lot of code that was either unused or
duplicating code from TTM. Removing this code also prevents excessive
calls to global swapout which were common during memory pressure
because both vmwgfx and TTM would invoke the shrinker when memory
usage reached half of RAM.

When we want to decouble resource management from buffer management we need to
be able to handle resources separately.
Add a resource pointer and rename bo->mem so that all code needs to
change to access the pointer instead.
No functional change.

Lets try to cleanup the usage of the term FIFO which we used for
both our MMIO based cmd queue processing and for general
command processing which could have been using command buffers
interface. We're going to rename the functions which are processing
commands (and work either via MMIO or command buffers) as _cmd_
and functions which operate on the MMIO based commands as FIFO
to match the SVGA device naming.

With SM5 capability a new version of streamoutput is supported by device
which need backing mob and a new field. With this change the new command
is supported in command buffer.
v2: Also track streamoutput context binding in binding manager.
v3: Track only one streamoutput as only one can be set to context.
v4: Fix comment typos
