accel/qaic: Add QAIC_DETACH_SLICE_BO IOCTL
Once a BO is attached with slicing configuration that BO can only be used for that particular setting. With this new feature user can detach slicing configuration off an already sliced BO and attach new slicing configuration using QAIC_ATTACH_SLICE_BO. This will support BO recycling. detach_slice_bo() detaches slicing configuration from a BO. This new helper function can also be used in release_dbc() as we are doing the exact same thing.

+DRM_IOCTL_QAIC_DETACH_SLICE_BO
+ This IOCTL allows userspace to remove the slicing information from a BO that
+ was originally provided by a call to DRM_IOCTL_QAIC_ATTACH_SLICE_BO. This
+ is the inverse of DRM_IOCTL_QAIC_ATTACH_SLICE_BO. The BO must be idle for
+ DRM_IOCTL_QAIC_DETACH_SLICE_BO to be called. After a successful detach slice
+ operation the BO may have new slicing information attached with a new call
+ to DRM_IOCTL_QAIC_ATTACH_SLICE_BO. After detach slice, the BO cannot be
+ executed until after a new attach slice operation. Combining attach slice
+ and detach slice calls allows userspace to use a BO with multiple workloads.
