Virglrender got a new unstable API that allows mapping host blobs at a given
memory address using MAP_FIXED mmap flag [1]. Usage of this new API brings
major performance and stability improvement for venus and drm native contexts,
see commit message of the RFC patch for details.
Sending early to collect review feeback and have patch prepared by the
time new version of libvirglrenderer will be released with the stabilized
API.

Changelog:
v3: - Addressed v2 review comments from Akihiko Odaki.

offset and improving error-handlings.
- Added r-b from Akihiko Odaki to the frist patch and t-b from
Yiwei Zhang to the map_fixed patch.
