Xorg driver for imx6. Inspired from Yocto project.
I did not find any problem, but notice Yocto project force Xorg xserver
1.14.4 while we use 1.16.
Notice Vivante driver should be able to provide Desktop OpenGL implementation.
However, this feature seems broken for a while[1]. Yocto use Mesa3D/swraster
to provide Desktop OpenGL API[2].

Some old binary blobs drivers, like the NVidia Tegra2/3 blobs, only
implement an old VIDEODRV ABI.
Since VIDEODRV ABIs are not backward compatible [0], lets introduce an
older Xserver version that supports such an old ABI.

Support for the Present protocol has been added to, and is mandatory
since version 1.15.
As we're on the verge of adding 1.14.7, we need to make Present a
version-specific dependency.

The upcoming NVidia Tegra2/3 binary blobs only work with a certain
VIDEODRV ABI (namely up to 14), so we must have a way to represent that
ABI so that such packages can not be enabled with a too recent/old ABI.

Only a single entry for now, but we'll add one more in an upcoming
patch, to support old binary-only drivers, like the NVidia Tegra2/3
drivers.
[Thomas:
- rename option from BR2_PACKAGE_XSERVER_XORG_SERVER_V_1_17_1 to
BR2_PACKAGE_XSERVER_XORG_SERVER_V_1_17, since we don't want to
rename the option at each minor release of the X.org server, and
X.org servers with the same major version will not have a different
ABI.]

"The void driver is a dummy driver that does nothing and just fulfils
the requirements of really old servers that must have an input device.
It is just dead weight for any server released after 2007 or so. Don't use
it."
