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.
