drm: rework SET_MASTER and DROP_MASTER perm handling
This commit reworks the permission handling of the two ioctls. In
particular it enforced the CAP_SYS_ADMIN check only, if:
- we're issuing the ioctl from process other than the one which opened
the node, and
- we are, or were master in the past
This ensures that we:
- do not regress the systemd-logind style of DRM_MASTER arbitrator
- allow applications which do not use systemd-logind to drop their
master capabilities (and regain them at later point) ... w/o running as
root.
See the comment above drm_master_check_perm() for more details.
v1:
- Tweak wording, fixup all checks, add igt test
v2:
- Add a few more comments, grammar nitpicks.
